I have a network with about 20 win98 computers that are exactly the same. Will log on at the beginning of the day and the drive mapping will be there, but at the end of the day, about half of them are gone and I have to go in and re-map them. Is there anyway to make it so it wont loose its mapping???

Do you select "Reconnect at Logon" when creating the Map? This can help. James Collins

Yes, but the thing is, I don't ever log out. It looses its mappings when I am still logged in to the computer. And when I do log in, there is a command in the login script that maps a drive. So I login, then I can use the drive, (drive M:). It works great, well, about 4 hours later, I go and use it again, and it is gone. Then I go and map it again, and it works fine.
Thanks
