Really don't like the idea of dropping down to 8 as this just stores up
problems for the future. That said my current plan of action is as
follows :
1. Try v8
2. Try asynch logon scripts as suggested by Joe.
This is going to take me a couple of days to sort as I'm only at my desk
for a couple of hours over the next couple of days.
Regards,
Alan.

Alan,
I'd agree - I can see their thinking, but its blinkered to think that
circumstances where administrators would want to override that.
This 'functionality' appears in v9 - do you need the full v9
functionality? does it get more reliable if you drop down to 8?

Andrew,
If you mean 'trusted' or 'untrusted' in the sense of the accomapanying
article by Jeff - then it's untrusted. It's just that its's not
consistent e.g. I logged in this morning through our WI and got my C:
drive. Experience tells me that if I now log out and back in again there
is a high probability that I won't get this drive.
It's really frustrating - I can sort of understand the rationale to say
that WI connection may be 'untrusted' - but surely that's down to us to
decide (and enable). Our homeworkers are currently using 'known' PC's
through an SSL VPN tunnel, all sorts of end-point scans etc. The
business has eventually decided that these would come into the category
of 'trusted'.
Regards,
Alan.

when it fails is your connection trusted or untrusted?

Have been requested to provide access to the C: for our homeworkers
(after much of a battle). Have enabled the appropriate policies
including Citrix ones and whilst I can see my C: through PN connection
to the desktop I'm having what I can only call inconsistent c: drive
mapping through WI. See the note from Jeff Pitsch
(http://www.brianmadden.com/content/content.asp?ID=504) to confirm.
Anyone with any ideas - I've tried doing a 'manual' mapping at logon but
this is also inconsistent.
