Recently a program was purchased for our workplace. The workplace has two networks, an administration network and a curriculum network. The admin network can see the curriculum but not visa versa.
The problem I am finding is that there are hundreds of users on the networks. On the Administration network the users are assigned to timeing out passwords, which have to be changed at the regular intervals. The Curriculum network has static passwords which the users cannot change.
I would like to add the database of this new program to a folder on the curriculum network, map the network drive to an assigned letter on the login script in the admin network. But I have found that the users need the same usernames and passwords on both networks for it to work without hassle. otherwise they need to put in another password to access the network folder, and because the admin users do not use the curriculum network, it is up to me to either A. change the passwords on the curriculum every time the admin passwords change or B. assign the same password (e.g "000000"
to all the users names on the curriculum and just tell the admin users to put that in when it asks them.
Hmmm...Ok this has drawn out pretty long.
What my question is, is: Is there an easier way to get the server to store the password so that the folder on one network is automatically mapped for each user on the other network without having to type in the password all the time? (e.g can i put the password into the login script?)
Thanks!
