VDM Client and local resources

[j_taylor]

Test driving VDI & VDM and I have a question about VMware VDM Client. I can connect just fine to my virtual desktop. However when I do connect from my normal desktop to my virtual desktop using VDM Client my virtual desktop maps all the drives I have on my normal desktop as other under my computer with the comment of (Disk from Remote Desktop Connection). How do I stop this?

TIA,

John

take a look at http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vdm21_manual.pdf on around page 74. You just have to set a registry entry

You can disable the drive mappings using Group Policy. This is available under the Terminal Services GPO or using the adm templates provided with VDM.

Just wanted to add that around page 77 or 80 of Troy's link you can also find the GPO section.
