Hello experts, I was trying to reach Jordan on his blog: http://www.bloggingforlogging.com/2018/11/22/windows-mapped-drives-what-the-hell-is-going-on/#comment-178 ,but I see that comments are closed, so maybe here someone can help me with my issue:
I've read article from the blog and I've tried to understand it, but I'm still confued. Probably due to low level of win knowledge... Could you try to help me and try to answer to my questions in simple words(?) My scenario: I've several dozen win VMs deployed for my team, we thought that the good idea is to use Ansible to confiure and customize them for our purposes inlcuding network drive mapping (later using it as a repo with apps/scripts which we want to install/use on VMs using Ansible). VMs are deployed by internal network team and what we get is a clean windows VM with domain username and pass. Mapped drive should be visible for mentioned domain user after logon to VM using RDP. Ansible has been instaled and configure succesfully - connection with VMs working well. Due to some 'probably' security policy and network configuration only one way of auth option was to use NTLM. Of course, it's possible to map network drive on every VM using RDP with mentioned domain user. --- Network drive --- \\bellagio.intra.vegas.net\how\the\hell\to\solve\this\issue --- Ansible hosts --- [winhost] 99.88.77.66 99.88.77.65 [winhost:vars] ansible_user=el...@intra.vegas.net ansible_password=elvis123 ansible_connection=winrm ansible_winrm_transport=ntlm ansible_winrm_message_encryption=always ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation=ignore Is it possible: 1) to use Ansible to map this network drive automatically in all VMs for the domain user (mapped drive should be visible after VM reboots, during every RDP sessions using this credentials? 2) to use this mapped drive as a 'repo place' for future purposes - to copy scrips, apps from this drive to VMs using Ansible?
