Private folder in server

[flaviorodrigues]

Hi

 

I like to one thing like this:

 

Server have a share: \\privatefolder\$username$

 

User login in computer with AD credentials

 

Then in my computer apper a remote disk for example h:\

 

when open user will see the privatefolder\$username$\

 

Server is 2008 R2

 

So i like any way to when user login if folder dont exist then creat one new with username and then reconnect all time that this user login

 

The best is user can have acess to the folder content with moodle, any way?

Where is the best way to do this?

 

 

thanks

You're basically describing a home directory - setup the user in Active Directory users and computers to have a home directory at (say) \\server\privateshare\%username% and make sure that the top share exists. The user directory will be created and then mapped to whatever letter you choose.

 

the downside of this is that a user browsing the server will see \\server\privateshare\user1, \\server\privateshare\user2 etc

 

this may not matter - if the permissions are right then they can't access the data but if you want to avoid this then you can turn on Access Based Enumeration - they will then only see their own folder.

thanks, very easy, but i put the letter "m" to map, and dont see mapped folder, but i see that new username folder have been created in the share.
