In Novell it is simple...
But in the world of microsoft itīs not.

Is there no way for me to map the unc \\server\share\user in kix?

Hi

We are using Novell too! And I know what you mean

You cannot do "Deep Root" mapping with NT servers and or Kixtart on to win9x boxes!! It explains why in Kixtart manual. I think Nt wkstns handle it better.

The only way (As far as I know) is to share all the users home dir as hidden shares using the $ after the user name and then map to them as per the thread I pointed you to.

Sorry to be the bringer of sad tidings.

The best solution I have found is to do this:

Run Kix and map users
...
use y: \\server\users
...

Then when you return to the login.bat do a subst.


subst h: y:\mike


This works well and you can run subst from the login script. Only problem is you burn up two drive letters.

Would something like this work?

use y: \\server\users
SHELL "%COMSPEC% /C C:\WINNT\system32\subst h: y:\mike"
use y: /del

That way you only use one drive letter instead of two.

Just an idea,
Bonk

sadly no, because the y: must remain for the subst to work.
