Windows 2000 Server logon scripts... and VirtualCD

I have 26 Windows XP Pro client computers and around 100 users that need to be able to use VirtualCDs. I have the VirtualCDs stored on my Windows 2000 Fileserver.. Network edition and everything is setup correctly.. The problem is that the cd's do not automatically mount even if I mount them once using the local administrator account.. They stay mounted if I mount them and then logoff even with normal users.. However it's not practical to login and mount these cd's for 100 users even if it's just one time.. I would like to be able to create a logon script that would mount the drives automatically when a user from this group logged in.. or possibly when any user logged onto one of the 26 computers.. (so that the users would not get an error when they logged onto a computer not running VirtualCD).. If anyone can help me out with this I'd really appreciate it.

    • Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge sales are apparently terrible

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Of course the sales are bad. Who even asked for a thinner phone with way less battery? Lightness? It's still a giant brick, it's just a thinner giant brick. It makes no sense at all. Making folding phones thinner, now that does make sense. Because when folded, the thinner it is unfolded, the more usable and pocketable it is when folded. You already expect worse battery at expense of actually being more pocketable. Galaxy Flip, when folded is half the size of S Ultra models and about as thick. That does make a big difference when fitting it in a pocket. But the phone that's as big as Ultra, making it thinner, you don't really solve anything, it's still a giant slab that barely fits into a pocket. All the "Mini" phones made way more sense than this thin crap. Especially now that it's literally impossible to find a phone smaller than 6.5". My dad only needs phone for calls and SMS and he doesn't want to go with smartphone because they are all so massive. Especially cheaper ones. Like, he'd be fine with Galaxy A06 for all he cares in terms of hardware, but it only comes in giant 6.7" format. It's useless. Or is he suppose to find a 800€ old gen iPhone Mini or Zenfone? He doesn't even need those stupid specs and such stupid price. And then you see old people fumbling around with giant smartphones and they don't even need 3/4 of features on them.

    • Nvidia and Foxconn planning to deploy humanoid robots within months

      its funny now instead of robots built for a specific task which is more efficient we are focused on humanoid robots that are built for do anything but might not do it as well because of restrictions similar to how human body works and they were molded after...

      3,900 mAh. When compared to the S25 Ultra (5,000), the S25+ (4,900) and the S25 (4,000), it has the worst battery of them all, all because of that slim size. Everything comes with sacrifices.
