Automap Network drives in Zentyal

To automap network drives on a Zentyal server to be used with Windows clients do the following:

  1. Go to the Zentyal Server (But ofcourse!)
  2. Open Leafpad and create a file called e.g. "mapDrives.bat" with a single line as follows: net use X: \\servername.domainname.local\share_name
  3. Go to Domain Group and select Group Policy Objects.
  4. Select Default Domain Policy and click on GPO Editor icon (it's the cog icon).
  5. Navigate to User Configuration Logon Scripts and click Add New.
  6. Select the above batch file and clilck Add
  7. Log off the Windows client and log back in.
The drives should be there. Hopefully this will help.
