Mapping Drives based on IP Range

[KevinBugg]

Hi,

We have 4 sites, all running on different subnets

1. 10.10.x.x
2. 10.20.x.x
3. 10.30.x.x
4. 10.40.x.x

I want to create a logon script that detects the ip address a machine is coming from, then map the relevant printers and drives depending on the ip range. Can someone help with this? Im happy to do the printer and drive mapping etc but detecting the ip range is causing me some problems.

Thanks in advance

Kev

you can use something like:

IPNodes = split(IPAddress, ".")
ip = left(IPNodes (1), 1)
Select Case ip
  Case 1
    DriveLetter = "z"
  Case 2
    DriveLetter = "y"
  Case 3
    DriveLetter = "x"
  Case 4
    DriveLetter = "w"
End Select
