Home Folder

CG · External Since: Feb 15, 2005 Posts: 9

2K server with the Home Folder selected for the user under the Profile tab in
AD. The ME pc will not create the drive to the home folder. The only way I
can get it to work is if I use the NET USE command in the login script. Any
help is appreciated.

This is a Windows Millennium Edition newsgroup, not a Windows 2000
newsgroup. If I were you I'd head over to the Windows 2000 networking
newsgroup.

I wasn't sure if I should post it under ME or Windows 2000. Figures I picked
the wrong one! Thanks for the reply.

Oh - Now I see. Sorry, missed that little bit.

Anyway, you are right - a WindowsMe client will not use the settings in
Active Directory since WindowsMe cannot read or process AD content. You'll
need to use a logon script (as it sounds like you're doing) to overcome
this.
