| MANUALLY MAP DRIVES ON TERMINAL SERVER |
| When using Terminal Services, you might also need to access files on the |
| local computer, which is what you use to connect to the Terminal Server. |
| Although Windows 2000 doesn't provide an easy way to do this, there is |
| still a free way: You can manually map local hard drives using the "net |
| For instance, if you want to map the local C: drive into your Terminal |
| Services session, type net use * \\%clientname%\c$ in the command prompt |
| in your Terminal Server session. (%clientname% is an environment variable |
| that holds the name of your local machine. You can use this command in a |
| batch file, and thus, map the folders for each user you want.) |
| The one problem with this solution is that you must share the folder and |
| drives you want to map. This isn't a predicament for users who have |
| administrator privileges on their local computers because they can access the |
| default administrative shares (e.g., C$ and D$). However, users who |
| don't have administrator rights must create shares and assign the proper |
| permissions to the shares. |
