hi

with win2003 server,

i'am using HP T5000 thin client and PCs to connect TS session.

I want to connect USB key in the session.

i allow drive mapping from the server and it works. but too many drives are
mapped (C: drive from Pc).

i want only the usb key drive in the session.

how to limit this ?

thanks

Only via scripting the deletion of drives you don't want connected, or via
3rd party software.

The first one that comes to mind is triCerat Simplify Lockdown. Scripting
would only help if you disallow access to My Network Places, so users can't
browse to the resource you deleted.

What is your exact requirement?

i want that some drive for few user can be mapped in their session.

but i dont want to parameter each client (thin or pc) . i'am searching for a
mass solution.

currently server disables mapped drives. a script connect network drive for
each user.

but i need now to connect USB key and digital camera. theses devices can be
seen in a session like a storage device.

but if i allow map drive by the server, the local drives (HD, CD) are map
too, and i don't want that.

i've tried many solutions, but no one works.

1/ i can't access USB key and digital camera by script to connect them

2/i'am serching the way to disconnect non-authorized drives by scripting =>
not working

You'll have to look to see what policy options exist in products like the one
I already mentioned (triCerat Simplify Lockdown), or packages like
Provision-IT Management Framework.
