Can I use a login script to run the net use command to map a drive and if the client get disconnected , un-map that drive?
I am connecting to a server via telnet and running the net use command to map a drive .
When the connection breaks, I re-login and need to map the same drive to a new drive letter . The old map is still there.

Create a batch file or add this to your logon script. I will use the drive letter F as an example.
@echo off net use f: /delete net use f: \\server\share
The first net use will delete any connection that is using the drive letter f and the second net use will remap a share to the f drive.

I agree and use the same commands in a batch file to disconnect and reconnect LPT1 to different network printers for a few users that I don't want messing with the settings.
Ron's instructions will do exactly what you want!

Hi,
I have created a batch file like this:
@echo off net use f: /delete net use f: \\server\share
and i have put it on \%systemroot%\system32\repl\import\ of a WindowsNT 4.0 server. All works properly.
But, where can i put this batch on Windows 2000 server for the same function ???
Many thanks Cesare

In the \SysVol\sysvol\domain.name\scripts folder.
\%systemroot%\system32\repl\import\ doesnt exist in W2k.
