Have you got the Group Policy Client Side Extensions hotfix installed everywhere? My XP machines all map perfectly.... 2010/1/26 Tom Miller <tmil...@hnncsb.org<mailto:tmil...@hnncsb.org>> Hi Folks: I use GPO preferences to give my users drive mappings to common locations. Too frequently the drive mappings never occur, though. A reboot resolves it, or I can run gpupdate /force and the next logon the mappings come back. Only an issue on XP, most security patches applied, GPO preferences patches applied. Weird. Suggestions? I can use a script but shouldn't need to.
