Login script question

Currently, at my company our Container Login Script looks like this:

MAP ERRORS OFF
MAP DISPLAY OFF
MAP ROOT h:= GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:USERS/%LOGIN_NAME

MAP f:=GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:
MAP ROOT P:=GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:APPS
MAP ROOT S:=GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:SHARED
MAP ROOT INS S1:=GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:PUBLIC
MAP ROOT INS S2:= GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:APPS
MAP DISPLAY ON
MAP
EXIT

Can someone please tell me where I can remap my second search drive? It is confusing my users on their workstations to see two APPS drives. Your response is very much appreciated!

you have two maps for GEEFCU_FS1\sys:apps

root p:
and
root ins s2:

so the users have two letters in the explorer for the same directory, you have control for assign a letter when you map, for example, the letter p:, but you donīt have it when you execute the sentence map s2:, the system automatically assign a letter begining with z for s1, y for s2, etc.

the sentence map ins s2: does two things map and search (path)
the sentence map p: does only one ....map but not search

The way to correct this is very easy, delete from the login script one of the sentences.

Yep, remove the line
MAP ROOT P:=GEEFCU_FS1\SYS:APPS
then you will still get a drive mapped to SYS:APPS from the search drive mapping.

I agree with the above, only remove the one that users do not currently use (If they've used the Y: drive for the last 2 years, well of course you don't want to remove that mapping) (Your search drives S1 start at Z: and work backwards..S2 is Y: drive)

And, well, just to let you know, but you shouldn't put APPS, home directories, or shared directories on the SYS volume - make a vol1 if you can....
