Drive Mapping - Reconnect at logon option overiding script

[dave123456789]

I have implemented a drive mapping script as follows:

' Drive mappings for migrated NCR USers
If InStr(strGroup, lcase("cn=migrated_users_NCR")) Then
objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "p:"
objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "g:"
objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "n:"
objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "s:"

objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:", "\\server\groups"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "n:", "\\server\NCR\MailArchive\" & strUserName
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "s:", "\\server\NCR\Software-N-Templates"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "p:", "\\server\NCR\Public"
End If


since applying this script at logon, i noticed that if a drive was mapped MANUALLY using the Reconnect at logon option prior to running the above script, the NEW drive mapping does not take effect, it seems that the Reconnect at logon option is overriding my script. The only solution at this time is to have my clients Disconnect manually, then log off/on again to receive the new mapping.

My question is : Is there a command that i can include in the above script that will force a disconnect?

Regards,

Dave

Is the script working to map the drives if they are not in use? Use capital letters for the disconnect portion, Windows stores its drive letter with capital letters.

Thank you for replying.

yes, the script is working to map drives that are not in use. I'll give you suggestion a try (capital letters) once i get to work. If a drive is in use but was originally set with the <reconnect at logon> option, the new mapping does not work, it will keep the old mapping, again, any drives mapped without the <reconnect at logon> will disconnect and map the new drive location...so i need to find out a way to overide the <reconnect at logon> setting.

By the way, where does windows store it's drive letters?

Cheers!

In the registry, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Network\*drive letter* is the only place I know of.
