RE: IFS mapped drive issues

["Steinmetz, Paul" <PSteinmetz@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Forgot to mention an important item.
The mapped drives to the IFS use a different user and password than the Windows loggin.
None of our Windows accounts equal our iSeries accounts.

   There should be little need to add the mapping to a /login script/ because the connections can be defined as persistent; i.e. effectively defined to span logins per implicit reconnect by Windows, by requesting that the established connection should be /restored/ "at the next logon":
http://www.google.com/search?q="net+use"+"persistent";

   The first link presented on my web-search; requesting the above:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490717.aspx
"...
/persistent: { yes | no } : Controls the use of persistent network connections. The default is the setting used last. Deviceless connections are not persistent.  Yes : saves all connections as they are made, and restores them at next logon.  No : does not save the connection being made or subsequent connections. Existing connections are restored at the next logon.  Use  /delete  to remove persistent connections.
