The way I've done it is...
*ONE* batch file (logon.cmd) which is called by your connection
(probably shared by DFS if you've got a lot of sites).
This checks any parameters (e.g. if '%1'=='Zone 1' set Zone1=Yes,
etc.) then computer names (as you're already doing), then
net use /d R:
if %Zone1%==Yes net use R: \\zone1\drive$
if %Zone2%==Yes net use R: \\zone2\drive$
if %compname%==TS1 runprog1.exe
if %compname%==TS2 runprog2.exe
This way all your logic is done in one file.
HTH.
