I am having problems deleting the previous mapped drives. If I put the
delete 'code' in the VBScript, it deletes the mapping later on in the script
(so no M: drive at all). If I put it in a separate batch file, it deletes
the mapping (no M: or U: drives).

However, the drives being mapped to staff departments isn't the problem.
It's the My Documents redirection and user's rights at the root of
\\server\department that is.

So...I created unique GPO's per Staff OU redirecting each to their
respective folder, here's the error:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Folder Redirection
Event Category: None
Event ID: 108
Date: 5/30/2008
Time: 4:55:26 PM
User: domain\Administrator
Computer: HTCC1
Description:
Aborting redirection of folder My Documents. The new folder path cannot be a
subdirectory of the current path. The folder is configured to be redirected
to <\\server\Department\Technical Committee>. Files were to
be moved from <\\server\Department> to <\\server\Department\Technical
Committee>.

I thought it might be the space in the folder name so I renamed it and fixed
the GPO. Nope, no redirection (but no errors in Event Viewer either). I
changed the GPO to have an 'M:' but it just changed it to the UNC path. I'm
stuck. Any help with would be FANTASTIC!

Hello Mark,

Thanks for your post.

From the error event you provide, I'd like to suggest you to perform the
following troubleshooting steps to disable moving files to the current
redirection folder:

1. Opened gpmc.msc, locate the GPO that has Folder Redirection settings and
right click the My document policy setting--->Properties--->Settings tab.
2. Removed the check mark from "Move the contents of my documents to the
new location".
3. On test client machine, Run "gpupdate /force" and logg off the current
user.
4. Logged back in and check how it works.

If the issue persists, please collect the folder redirection log from the
machine and send to me:

Hello Mark,

That Microsoft KB article also applies to Windows Server 2003. You may need
to manually create the Diagnostics key and the value described in the KB
article.
