Group Policy to map drives without Active Directory
-
Friday, January 25, 2013 8:57 PMWe have a standalone server (Server 2008 R2 SP1) that is not connected to Active Directory. There are several users connecting to it via Remote Desktop. Each user profile maps to a network share. We recently changed the network share, and so we need to update everyone's drive mapping to disconnect from the old share and connect to the new share. Can we use the Local Group Policy Editor to do that?

Hello,
Unfortunatelly you can't use Group Policy Preferences.
You can use a logon script that disconnect the drive and reconnects the drive.Just use gpedit.msc:

The script would be like:
net use m: /delete
net use m: \\server\share1 /persistent:yesMVP Group Policy - Mythen, Insiderinfos und Troubleshooting zum Thema GPOs: Let's go, use GPO!
