samba - Sep 2006 - workgroup drive mapping

Hi All,

I have samba serving homes and group shares in my workgroup. 30% of 
client systems are portables and spend >50% of their time off site.
Others are fixed single user workstations.

I have no need to operate a domain, however what options do I have to 
simplify mapping drives once local network or VPN access is restored.

Is there some logon script type stuff I can use just for the workgroup? 
or some windows client software?

Thanks

Rob

	I see two alternatives (at least):

1) Windows 2000 and XP should be able to deal with online/offline
   shares "automagically"

2) DOS Scripts to remap the share using 'net use'.
