    OK, let me see if I can explain this. Anytime I attach a PC to our network, it immediately finds the network drive. Once the PC is attached, it always finds the network drive. However, the laptops do not. They find the domain without a problem, but everyday, they have to be mapped to our network drive. Does anybody have an idea or suggestion.

      there are two ways around it:

      1- Run a local soultion such as btach file on start ie;
      net use M: \\serverdrive_OR_IPaddress\serverfile

      2- Run start-up sript on domain controller side.

      Either way should fix the remapping issue.
