    Hello.

    I want my staff to have individual network drives for their documents, music, etc. I dont want them having access to the C: drive becuase of company documents. Does anyone know how to do this, automaticlly for each user (when a user is created.). Also i want it connected each time they log on.

    Thanks.

    (any help would be highly apreciated :-))

    What you want is called "folder redirection"  OR you may want "roaming profiles".  roaming profiles can be a bit of a pain if not done right.

    This can be done in more than one way.  GPO, registry settings, user action.

    Here is a webpage with some good info but you may want to look up an MS doc.  I saw your other post too.  Spend $50 on a book and study for MS workstation exam (even if you don't take it).  It will be worth it.:

    Or you can map individual network drives using group policy.
