[THIN] Re: Mapping Drives to Specific Users..

I don't think Harry means the client drive of the machine they are
connecting to Citrix from, but the C drive of the workstation they normally
login to at the office.

User A uses PC A in the office.

goes home, fires up his home PC and connects to the Citrix server for
access.  That user wants to access a share on PC A.

This is where a home drive and redirected "My Documents" Location is nice.

Once it is mapped, it should stick in the user's profile.  I think some
simple training and a cheat sheet might work.
