shaju_devassy shaju_devassy Fresh Scripter Registered: 2005-09-30 Posts: 22	Hallo, I have a cd rom drive(I) and three card reader removable drives (J,K,and L) on my terminal server. Is there anyway i can hide these drives for the users who log on using kixtart logon script. Would be really great if this is possible. Thanks for reply in anticipation. Regards Shaju Devassy

Case A: go with GPOs as Les suggested Case B: Deal with it using the Metaframe policies _________________________

I have through Gpo my a,b,c and d drives hidden. In gpo i dont find any option to choose the drive which you want to hide for eg:F or so. It give me only three options hide all drives or abcd or abc.
