There is no reason users should be getting different drive mappings. Are you sure you aren't already doing this via login script? Is V: taken by a mapping already? Again, simply changing the registry entry specified (if V: is already used by your company) should correct the behaviour.

Interesting point you raise Angela. But I always thought you could control the drive letter of the first drive mapping so that you know what the clients C drive will be. I guess this is another reason why remapped server drives makes it less confusing for the users. Then C will always be C.
Cheers.

Please respond to thin
Thanks for this. I may disable client drive mappings and hard code it in a
logon script. At least this way users know its always going to be a std drive letter. Different users get many different network drive mappings so
theirs no guarantee c: drive is going to be v:
