DFS and Mappin g Drives.

[penauroth]

This is the problem:

I have a VBScript that maps everybody's drive to a DFS share on our server (X:\ = \\domainname\dfsroot\dfslink). A few workstations show the mapped drive as this "on 'domainname\dfsroot\dfslink'". Notice how the dfslink is omitted before the on. I have manually disconnected the mapped drives. All workstations and server have the latest patches and updates. How can I correct this.

Note: If I open a shell and 'net use' the drive it works fine however, a multiple line batch script does the same thing. Thanks.

When mapping a drive in Windows like this, it is normal to see that. If the link was Users then it would be normal to see it as Users on 'domainname\dfsroot\dfslink (x).

The reason for this is so the share shows up first and users can easily distinguish drive mappings.
