Each user account in the Active Directory has a Home folder or personal drive
associated with it. Whenever a user logs in, the Z: drive is automatically
mapped. However after I upgraded people from Windows 2000 Pro to XP Pro,
we’ve seen these Z: drives mysteriously disconnect. No service packs have
been able to fix this. I’ve worked around the problem by creating shortcuts
on people’s desktops.

I will also post this in the MS Server 2000 forum, but I just wanted to
cover all of the bases and see if anybody had any solutions over here.

Thanks in advance,
Jay
