I am having a problem with some W98 clients losing some of their mapped drives after rebooting. They are set to reconnect at logon but they don't always re-map. Any ideas?

Clients on what sort of network? Win9x, NT, Win2000, peer to peer, domain? What protocols loaded?

This is a single domain, NT4 network with tcpip

I think what I would tend to do is to map any drives required in a logon script using the NET USE command, rather than reconnecting at logon. For some reason it works better :p

Make sure they are set for "Quick Logon" rather than "Logon and restore network connections".
