            Your are right Jason,.. Shares are dependent on the User - nothing to do with the computer.

                    So they refuse to use anything Microsoft, except for their biggest product? Weird.. Anyway, I don't know if it's possible on a Mac, but can you mount the folders via ssh?

                      If you have to map a drive, then Group Policy is the way to go.

                      Edit: removed incorrect info. Source article had a very misleading title

                        You could also schedule a task to run your drive mapping script.

                          As with any system, you should always swing back around and re-visit issues.

                          With the help of the group here, and other resources i hope to go over the GPP and see what I can clean up and improve.
