Is anyone having issues with mapped network drives? I have a Windows 2003
domain, that maps user's drives via a logon script. Had issues with beta,
RC1 and RC2 where I would be notified the drives could not be connected at
logon, now I get it with RTM. I map a drive that "Documents" is redirected
to, along with "Pictures' and "Music". I also map a drive to a specific
media share. The drive letters show up, and can be accessed. A couple of
times, the drive letters did not show up, but I could still launch Outlook
(my PST is on the "Documents" mapped drive), but I could not do anything
with "Documents" from the start menu. Also, even thought I can access the
media share (mp3, mpg, avi) WMP will not play or catalog any new files,
though it will play the old one's just fine. Also, I can not disconnect any
of the drives using the GUI or NET USE. If I map a new drive using the GUI,
it works quite well.
