drivemountnet-usenetwork-sharewindows
I'm using the following code to mount a network drive in a script that configures desktop icons and favorites by copying them when the user logs into windows.
NET USE W: \\Server\Files\IT\auto /user:"DOMAIN\username" "password"
I have read the question How to mount a drive with read only permission but it's asking about linux.
Does anyone know how to mount a network drive as read only via script?
Tested and work this way. on server 2k8 and windows 7 client:
User Configuration->Preferences->Windows Settings->Shortcuts->New
and than the details on photo
for easy finding you can specify a icon for this shortcut, use .ico file
Is the user in the administrators group on the Windows 7 box? Can you try removing the user from the admin group? Or temporarily disable the UAC and see if things work.
There are some cases where the UAC will interfere with login scripts.
See the section 'Group Policy Scripts can fail due to User Account Control' on this page. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766208(WS.10).aspx

You'll want to set the permissions on the share such that it only allows read access. This is something that can be done pretty easily. If you've got a share right click on the folder, and select properties.
Go to the sharing permissions tab and select "permissions" then uncheck all boxes except the read box for that user (or group.)
