Best method to map drives AND redirect My documents?

What's the best method to map network drives on xp workstations of a 2003
domain? I use to redirect the My documents folder to a server share too,
because many common dialogs points to My documents.

Any help would be appreciated.

A login script.

Folder redirection is done via group policy - drive mappings in 2003 are
assigned via login script (which can also be assigned by group policy or in
ADUC properties)

If you redirect My Documents to \\server\share\%username%\My Documents (by
redirecting My Documents with Basic - All Users Redirect to Same Location"
and specifying \\server\share as the parent) then you could use a simple
batch file login script with the following command....

net use x: " \\server\share\%username%\My Documents" /persistent:no

Use a user logon script from group policy with the net use command

Again you can do this using group policy which has a redirection feature
