Windows XP pro sp2 machine won't reconnect to program on server using Z drive
it connects initially but then the following day won't reconnect you have to
remap drive even after ticking reconnect at logon. We had the client
machine's hard drive wiped clean recently because of problems, it's been
happening since then.
Could anybody help please?

Why not use a login script?

net use z: /del
net use z: \\server\share /persistent:no

etc.

It's really best not to use locally configured drive mappings -
