How can I force a network drive to show on the desktop upon logging in? I can get the user's home drives, but not the shared network drives.

Are you asking how to mount a network drive at login or how to show the network share on the desktop at login? If you mean the former. You can do this multiples ways but the two easiest I can think of off the top of my head are:

- Policy with a script triggered at login scoped at the correct users/groups
- Config Profile/MCX (under login items i believe) scoped at the correct users/groups

Thank you. I'll have to find what group the staff members are in and enable it through a user policy.
