Windows Script Host question (WSH logon script)

[mujtba]

Hi ,

Im REAL new with VB and scripting. Im more into networking. I have about 4 departments. I want to MAP the users to their shared drives on the network, and I also want to map their My Documents folder to their shared drive on the network. How do I do that? I found the following snippet on microsoft:

Const ENGINEERING_GROUP = "cn=engineering"
Const FINANCE_GROUP = "cn=finance"
Const HUMAN_RESOURCES_GROUP = "cn=human resources"

Set wshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "h:",
"\\FileServer\Users\" & wshNetwork.UserName

Set ADSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
Set CurrentUser = GetObject("LDAP://" &
ADSysInfo.UserName)
strGroups = LCase(Join(CurrentUser.MemberOf))

If InStr(strGroups, ENGINEERING_GROUP) Then

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:",
"\\FileServer\Engineering\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\EngLaser"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\Plotter"
wshNetWork.SetDefaultPrinter
"\\PrintServer\EngLaser"

ElseIf InStr(strGroups, FINANCE_GROUP) Then

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:",
"\\FileServer\Finance\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\FinLaser"
wshNetWork.SetDefaultPrinter
"\\PrintServer\FinLaser"

ElseIf InStr(strGroups, HUMAN_RESOURCES_GROUP) Then

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "g:",
"\\FileServer\Human Resources\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\PrintServer\HrLaser"
wshNetWork.SetDefaultPrinter
"\\PrintServer\HrLaser"

End If

My info:
Departments:
IT
QA
Finance
Engineering
Executive

Fileserver:
Neptune1
Nas1

I will use Group Policy in AD to implement this. All users have 2000 or XP. So I want to look at the department, and MAP users to their drives. Can someone modify the code for me to reflect that?

Thanks

It's much more easier to do these exact things with scriptlogic's tool - desktop authority .
It's a gui based scripting solution and you can pervent yourself from possible mistakes and issues.

[jbennet]

cant you do this through user/group policy?

it's all easily done with gpmc, scripting, IMO, is for more complex tasks
