Hi, i have a problem with mapping a subdirectory of a shared map on the windows nt server. the situation: a network with a winnt server and windows 98 clients. on the server a map called users is shared with several subdirs(the users). I would like to map the user dirs as a drive when they log on the nt server. The login script and the option connect homedir to (by user management) do not work. Windows 98 does not understand %username% but also direct pad in the script, \\pdc\users\itsme, won't work. I have done it by sharing each user dir seperate and hidden(I do not want to see all the shared users in network neigborhood), but then the $ is visible to the user in the explorer when mapped. is there a easy solotion for this problem other than buying winnt workstation.? thnx for your reply and sorry for the crossposting, Jelle
