VB log on scripts

[duster]

can anyone on this site help me with a vbscript. In not really a programmer but i know that a VB script would be the best language to get this done. what i want to do is map network drives for users when they log into windows domain.I want a script that looks at which active directory group the user is apart of and map a drive for the user based on which folder on the file server that group has access to. any help would be appreciated.

I used to do this on our Netware Server, but the commands may be different on a Windows server....

Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network")

strUserPath = "LDAP://" & objSysInfo.UserName
Set objUser = GetObject(strUserPath)

For Each strGroup in objUser.MemberOf
strGroupPath = "LDAP://" & strGroup
Set objGroup = GetObject(strGroupPath)
strGroupName = objGroup.CN

Select Case strGroupName
Case "Finance Users"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "X:", "\\atl-fs-01\finance"

Case "Human Resource Users"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "X:", "\\atl-fs-01\hr"

Case "Manufacturing Users"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "X:", "\\atl-fs-01\manufacturing"

Case "Shipping and Receiving Users"
objNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "X:", "\\atl-fs-01\shipping"
End Select

Have you considered KiXtart (http://www.kixtart.org/)? It is much easier than VBScirpt

I used the link below and my mappings work. The problem i have now is that it takes about 2 minutes to complete the log in process and im only mapping a single drive in a test environment. anything i can do to speed up the process?

Do you mind posting the entire login script?
