My Documents not mapping correctly

Sometimes my students do not get their network drive mapped correctly
when their login script runs. Instead of getting the correct mapping
of "username on /server/200x/" they get a more generic connection of
200x on 'server'. This is causing loss of student data(and crying) The
script is in sysvol and not part of a group policy script that other
drives are mapped from. gp is used to forward the my docs to their
share on the server. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you aren't using group policy to launch this script, how are you
launching it when the students log on? Is the reason that you are not using
the same script the other drives map from that you do not want the staff's
"my documents" to map to the server?

Thanks for the reply- We are using gp to redirect the my doc folder to
a network server the policy says for kindergarten (as an example) to
redirect to //studentshareserver/2013/%username% if it is working
correctly as it sometimes does they get a mapped drive as a result
that is :johndoe on //studentservershare/2013. Sometimes they only get
a more generic connection of: 2013 on studentservershare. This is
causing the little ones to lose work. I thank you, My students thank
you.
