I am using a batch file (win2000 server) to map hidden drives for users use.
eg
net use u: \\server\students$\%USERNAME%

My problem is when the drive is mapped on our native xp pro network the
drive description reads ""username on server\students$ (u:)" in My Computer
My question is how do I stop the description giving away that it is a dir
within the hidden students dir.
At least a potentional hacker knows what to look for now.

Thanks
Graham
