Late to the party, but I noticed something similar testing win2k in a NT4 environment under a Samba PDC.
Simply, the PDC had a variable of \\server\%U (user's home drive) and a drive letter of U: , well, NT4 had no problem with the login script reading: net use U: U: 2k would not touch it.
So, all I did was add the lines: if not exist U: net use u: \\server\%username%
(useless on a kixtart forum, but it took me 2'ish hours to figure it out. /shrug unix has spoiled me in some respects.

Dear a_non_moose,
All kind of input on this board is welcome. Of course a problem isn't always a common one. None common because the configuration using may not to be very usual, but someday another guy will ask for a solution on a simular and a member reading your feedback. greetings.
I've been searching and digging thru threads trying to find code snippets to employ to fix what was described, but the simplest solution was as I found worked for me.
Tho, I am happy that I'll never see the ICW ever again (thanks to this board).
