I'm on windows server 2008 enterprise (not r2). I've tried the instructions below by creating a desktop.ini and Target.lnk to map a folder to a network share. The folder and files have the system attrib set. The instructions below are for win xp. I'm wondering if need to change anything to make this work for Win 2008.
