And that would be? Maybe someone can benefit from your solution in the future so if you can and feel like it you can post your solution here.



Of cause, i would have posted that - i think, it is not so interresting for that board. My notebook-users don't have to decide, wether they work in office or offline or somewhere else. but they all should use the benefits of softwaredeployment and filesync. so we have a kix-loginscript running by w2k3-dc-policy and a sync-script running from local registry.
working in offline-mode, the pc uses a subst to link the path for the local programs, workin in online-mode, a networkdrive should deploy programs and services for the notebooks beeing allways up to date.
the problem is: mappings from kix by dc-policy aren't established fast enough, so the script allways thought to work in offlinemode. i'm not shure, if the subst was correctly deleted on next logon, so my local script now looks something like that: delete any old subst on v: - manually map networkdrive - decide, if networkfile exist an then run offline- or online-routine ....
