new user with new folder script

[77zxmax]

Greeting,
i have a hidden "$private" folder that has subfolders for each employee's name .
and my login script allow them to map their drive according to their usenmane eg: net use x: \\server\$private\%username%

now my question is, when the user logins in he sees that mapped drive with the full path - but i want to hide the $private folder ..

is there a way to hide that from the client

thanks

It isn't hidden if the name is $private. Hidden shares have the $ at the end.

Your other option is to share each users folder and map to it diretly.

You might also want to look at upgrading your scripts from cmd/bat to vbscript. faq329-5798



I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
