Hi Angela,
You could remove the drive letter and then mount it to an NTFS path instead,
say C:\CDROM. That way you can always get to the CDROM by going to that
location. Following that, if you needed a drive letter for whatever reason in
the future (say an install required it) you can always SUBST a drive letter
temporarily, but the main point is that the CDROM is accessible without needing
to revisit Disk Management each time you need it.
Regards,
Jon

I guess I could but then I would be changing the server stds for the company
I work for (they are normally pretty strict). I was really hoping there would
be a AD GPO that prevents the CDROM from Mapping but I couldnt find such a
setting

Hi Angela,
You could assign a different drive letter to the CDROM an then hide the new
drive letter via GPO. So you can still use G: as a network mapping.
That's how I would do it.

Hi
When users run Windows Explorer, the Citrix Server CDROM is mapped. Is
there a way to stop the CDROM mapping so its not mapped? I dont want to hide
the CDROM letter via a GPO as I want to use the same drive letter to map to a
network share.
Eg CDROM uses drive letter G: I want to map G: to map to another network
location
I know I can remove the letter assigned to the CDROM on each server via
Disk Management but I would rather not as I use the CDROM on each server once
in a while. Im hoping there would be a GPO that would prevent the CDROM from
mapping. I could then use the same drive letter to add my new network mapping
Thanks
Ang
