Problem with NetDrive

Problem with NetDrive
Thu, 15 Nov 2007 20:48:54 GMT
Hi everyone

I have to change something in 15000 login script.
All students here have a map on a private folder.
There is the map.
map root p:=etudiants/fichiers:a00%LOGIN_NAME

Because i use Netdrive to give students access from home, i can't used the 
%LOGIN_NAME variable because NetDrive doesn't recognize it.
To work, the map should be :  map root p:=etudiants/fichiers:a00a00a0001 
for user a00a0001 and 
map root p:=etudiants/fichiers:a00a00a0002 for user a00a0002 etc....

It is possible to replace the %LOGIN_NAME variable by the real username?

Thanks in advance....

Normally you should use homedirectory variable
MAP ROOT P: = %HOME_DIRECTORY

that works with NetDrive.

Hi Sami....

I tried this but it's doesn't works.
If i change %LOGIN_NAME for %HOME_DIRECTORY, in NetDrive, i see
DriveP@a00a0001. When i open this folder, i see absolutly nothing.
But if i replace %HOME_DIRECTORY by a00a0001, i saw the same thing in 
NetDrive
DriveP@a00a0001 but this time, i see all the files in the folder.

In the user object, i have the Home Directory configured with the right 
path.

Do you have another idea?
