One of our admins wrote the following batch file (userdrive.bat):
net use %1: \\server\Users\%2
We then added this to a new Group Policy object under User Configuration\Windows Settings\Scripts (Logon/Logoff)\Logon, with the parameters U %USERNAME%. This gives everyone a drive mapping U: to \\server\Users\username where username is the user's name.

We have to remember to create the directory for the user, but it's working pretty well so far.

If you want to move the user's home (My Documents) directory, look at the Folder Redirection policy in Group Policy.

[EDIT] I forgot to mention that the userdrive.bat file is stored in the SYSVOL scripts folder (\\domain.name.co.uk\SYSVOL\domain.name.co.uk\scripts). You could store it here, or in the GPO's own folder. The latter is probably better. Use the Show Files button to open a folder window onto the GPO's scripts directory. [/EDIT]

Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder
