I just finished a new SBS 2003 R2 roll-out with the majority of the computers running Windows Vista Business and Ultimate.
The rollout finished pretty much without any major problems. After all the computers joined the domain I decided to take a VB script I use to map network drives and I adjusted it to meet the client’s needs. I added the script to the Default Domain Policy GPO. Unfortunately the drives weren’t mapped to the Vista clients.
After spending some time researching the issue, I came across the solution in the form of a Microsoft Knowledge Base article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937624
The problem was related to the Vista UAC and the article describes the modifications to the registry that need to be done in order to solve it.
Type msconfig into a command line. Navigate to the Tools tab. Highlight Disable UAC and click the Launch button. Reboot.
This was the trick for me.
Cheers
The idea is to keep UAC enabled though.
