Hi Ganesh,

How can I incorporate this in the script for UDS Provisioning, which was supplied in the Windows Server 2008 Resource Kit?

I'm not a scripter, nor a programmer so I (and a few other people I presume) could use a little help in configuring that script.

The portion that needs adjustment is as follows:

------------------------------------------------

Sub Create_DFS_Namespace()

' =====================================================================================

' Create DFS namespace for %username% DFS folder and the user's data stores beneath it

Dim sUserDFSFolder

' Define the top-level folder for the user within the DFS namespace

sUserDFSFolder = sUserDFSNamespace & "\" & sUsername

' %USERNAME%\Documents

sCommand = """" & DFSUTIL & """ link add " & _

sUserDFSFolder & "\" & sUserDocsDFSFolder & _

" \\" & sUserDataServer & "\" & sUserDocsShareName & _

"\" & sUsername & "\" & sUserDocsPath

arr = Execute_Capture( sCommand, 10, True)

Log_Command sCommand, arr

------------------------------------------------------

Any help is greatly appreciated!
