Map shared folder using endpoint manager (NO AD involved)
Hi, so I have a couple of dozen users using Microsoft365/Office365 with Premium accounts. So I have setup "Endpoint Manager" to control them, deploy apps... So the company does not have any ki...
Hi, it all depends (like it always does ) on your setup
Are the devices azure ad joined or only registered ?
Are the user admin?
Are you using Applocker
Asuming you don't block PowerShell you could create a powershell script with a simple net use x: \\server\fileshare /user:domain\username *
But its not pretty of course...
Or like I did with an admx to map network drives

Or like this

But it all depends if you could access the nas without password prompts the first time you are mounting a drive letter to it and how much users account are created on the nas...

Hi,
the laptops are Azure AD joined.
The users are not admins
Applocker? I don't think so
I tried once with a powershell, but it kept complaining it was not signed.
Plus if I have like 30 different users with different passwords, it would take 30 different scripts, no?
They cannot access the mapped drive without a password, because if I would do that everyone without a user/passsword would be able to access it.

- I did not test this out myself but it's worth a try . the first thing I can come up with:
You will need to create a powershell script for each user (group) to add the credentials to the credential manager one time. It would take some time..
cmdkey /add:sharedmachine /user:domainname\username /pass:password
After the credentials are added you could create a networkdrive like I did with the deliver usfrom hybrid blog
