when users login via kix script they get their network drives ok
when they mark certain files for offline use and then switch off, disconnect the network lead and log backin again etc they do not get the network drive containing the offline file (ie mapping itself in windows explorer)
the shortcut offline icon reveals the offlines files with no problem and actually manually mapping the network drive works fine.
have repeated the above scenario using normal NT script (ie "net use" commands instead of kix's "use" command for drive mappings) and it works fine
so to summarise the problem is that during offline use eg at home with the user logging as if they were in the office the network drives fail to map themselves unless NT logging script was first used
does anyone know why this is and is there a fix. We don't want to use NT scripting as we find it flakey and kix scripting more solid
