DOH. Sorry, my bad. I wasn't thinking about what I was typing and typed netlogon instead of sysvol. No wonder you are confused when you are getting bad info.
Do a dir \\domain\sysvol to demonstrate what I was trying to say about the junction point.

Status Local Remote Network ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- T: \\wrk.ads.pha.phila.gov\netlogon Microsoft Windows Network U: \\ads.pha.phila.gov\netlogon Microsoft Windows Network That's my root domain (U:), and my "working" domain (T:). I browsed to \\(domain)\netlogon, and then mapped a drive letter to that share. Perhaps it's a Win2003 thing? My AD is Win2000. Did I map the drive wrong, or should I not be using "net use" to show the mapping? Confused it is, that I am. :-) ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
