hi

I want to connect some usb drives & usb keys in some TS 2003 session, but i
want to do this only for some users.

these drives have no sharing.

I'am looking the right way to perform this with these conditions :
- i don't want to parameter each client (PC & HP T5000 Thin client), i want
a global solution

for this time, drive mapping is unable.

I've seen 3 ways to configure this :
- on the client (i dont want to use this solution -> the drive map option is
always enable)
- on the TS server (with RDP configuration -> the drive map option in
unable)
- in the users properties in AD 2K (it seems that these options are only
availble for ICA connection)

I've created severals script to manage printers and network disks. all of
them are working properly.
So i'm looking for a script to solve my problem.

any ideas ?

perhaps these ways :
i'am always using SQL server to store rights of my users (who can connect
printers, network)
- read the drive(not shared) on the client and connect them in the session
(so how to read drive on the client ???)
- all users connect their drives but all unautorised drives are disconnected

maybe others ideas without VBS scripting ?

thanks

Using a GPO to allow certain users to permit local drives?
