Logon script

[loveorhateit]

Is there a way to set up a long script in Active directory and have it map drives that are located somewhere else and need to use a different username and password than their domian login.

VBScript

WSHNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "Z:", "\\ServerName\ShareName", "False", "username", "password"

Batch file

net use Z: \\ServerName\ShareName /user:username password /persistent:no

Hmmmm.... so what's to prevent someone from browsing to the netlogon share, and viewing the script? That would give them access to the info to get them into that data share. Not very secure.

Valid argument 58sniper, thats why i use an app called exescript that compiles the script into an exe. Granted someone could use a decompiler but thats pretty unlikely, but then again nothing is bulletproof.
