Because my book defines "logon drive" as "Sets the drive to be used as a home directory for domain logons by Windows NT/2000/XP clients." With a default of, you guessed it, Z: ! That was why I was winding up with two "home" directories one on S: (from my bat file) and one on Z: from the default value logon drive.
I will take the "exit" statement to heart and add one in on my file. I do not have one currently. My problem wasn't so much the "persistence" of Z: as I didn't want it in the first place! <grin> Anyway, all's well that ends well.

I fixed the problem by making sure logon.bat ended with an "exit" statement. After 10-60 seconds (really not sure how long), drive Z: would disconnet/disappear.
