I know next to nothing about NT login scripts. We are converting some servers from Novell to NT and I need to know if windows has the capability thru the login script to map drives based on group memberships. Any and all help is appreciated.

You will definitely want NT Resource Kit to make login scripting more robust. We have all Win9x clients here and in order to get login scripting to map drives based on membership I implemented a trick.
1. Create a folder named "Group" 2. Create subfolders for each group 3. Create a simple text file in each group folder (readme.txt) 4. Set NTFS security so only people who belong to the group can see the file in their respective folder. 5. In the login script use IF EXIST to determine if the user can see the file and therefore belongs to that group.
