I had to re-configure my policies to test it, but I did not see the network
drivers as I expected to. I can't spend more time on it now, but it seems to
be acting the same way as yours... hmmm

Steve,
On the farm where we tested we only have one policy.
Are you seeing client network drives automatically showing up on your farm?

Do you have any other policies which might be overriding this one?

Steve,
Nope, they don't show up anywhere but in 'change client /view'.

Yes, you got both areas. Do they show up in other applications other than
explorer?

Steve,
The screenshots you sent didn't come through on my email, so I'm not sure if
we are looking at the same thing.
But, we tried setting the client\devices\resources\drives\connection and
mappings policies and making sure the mfcfg.exe settings allowed drive
mappings.
We're still not seeing the drives show up in applications like explorer
(they consistently show up in a 'change client /view', though).
Thanks,
Tony

There are two settings in the policy, did you check both?
First, which drives to map:
Then whether or not to cnnect at logon:

All,
According to Citrix that policy is for enabling/disabling access to 'remote
drives' it doesn't automatically map remote drives (I haven't tested to make
sure).
Anyway, I wrote a little batch file to do it...
@echo off
::
change client /view |findstr /i " Remote" >%TEMP%\drivemaps.txt
::
for /f "tokens=1" %%i in (%TEMP%\drivemaps.txt) do net use * %%i /p:no
::
del %TEMP%\drivemaps.txt
I could've swore that Citrix used to do this automatically (XP at least),
but our Citrix consultant swears that I must be smoking something.

it would be cool if it did though.
What happens if you run a subst command to make the drive appear local?
Just curious. I have no need for it.

As far as I can recall, Citrix does not map network drive shares, only local

All,
OK, maybe this is a really stupid question, but I thought if a client logs
into Citrix with a drive mapped on their client that points to a network
share that drive would show up (maybe as a different drive letter) in their
Citrix applications, is this correct?
We have a CPS4.0/R03/W2K3SP2 farm servicing version 9.15 clients, when they
log in they see their 'fixed disks' but they don't see any of the network
drives mapped on their client PC.
If I log in I see the same thing (no client mapped network drives), however
if I get to a command prompt in the session and run a 'change client /view'
it shows my network drives mapped on my client as 'Remote' drives.
Is this the way its always worked (I seem to remember all the client drives
showing up unless you told Citrix not to)? If not, what do I have to do to
get the drives to show up?
Thanks,
Tony
