Map Home Folder and Rename them

[PreviousPoster]

Hi,

Under ADUC, I can set a home folder to and a drive letter for that home folder.

Trouble is, the name of the drive as it shows up in explore follows the format of share on \\server\ etc. I need a method to rename it to something friendly, like "John's Home" or &UserName& Home" or the like.

Is it posisible to do this via GP or some other method? I tried exploring a logon script but can't seem to find language to make it work in .bat files.

Thanks!

Does anyone have a solution for this?

The information is stored in the registry at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2

Find the appropriate key, and look for a value called _LableFromReg it is a string value. If it doesnt exist create it.

You can use GPO, or a bat calling a .reg file, VBS or many other methods to modify/create this key
