Hi, i have simular Problems with win2000, but the problem apears only if
wins fail (vpn or restartet nmbs ) so i decide to mount the home share
again in the netlogon script, this works.
It seems if the home share cant be located at login time matching it to 
a network drive automatic will fail, i guess this might be a slow wins 
answer about the service , what makes me wonder is the the problem never 
apears to the profile or netlogon share
so maybe some of the gurus has an answer.
Best Regards
