It should be working if you enclose %username% in paths with quotation marks ( " ). However, being a paranoic with this, I'd avoid spaces in sAMAccountnames anyway.

You can find this thread here: http://gpoguy.com/MailList/tabid/58/forumid/1/tpage/1/view/topic/postid/203/ Default.aspx#203 Hopefully that'll help. I don't know how it'll sort the permissions out. Andrew From: Ananth Rajagopal [mailto:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 25 February 2009 09:31 To: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [gptalk] Create respective folders with modify permissions in Server Share Hi, We have a script to map folders from a pre-created share from the server, based on the user name. like when a user, student900, logs in, an S drive is mapped and the S drive will be the folder student900 located in a share in the server. for student901, the mapped drive will be folder student901 from the server. presently we are creating these folders one by one and assigning respective permissions. Is there an easier method? regards Anth.
