Not really - H: is just a designation given to describe a mapping. So
at on site H: might be

\\servername\shareexample123\username

At another it might be

\\severname123\share\OMFG.

Even though they are still called H: at those sites by those people -
it could just as easily be called P or R or any other letter really at
one site and J or K at the other.


One solution is that you could write a little batch file for each
locationthat maps the drive

something like

First batch file called Location 1
Net use H: /delete
Net use H: \\servername\sharename


Second batch file called Location 2
Net use H: /delete
Net use H: \\servernameatlocation2\sharenameatlocation2

then the user can just click on the location he is currently at when he
logs on and it will map the drive for him (he may need to disconnect
the H: from the previous location but you could add that to the
beginning of the batch as I have above.

If the network setting for each location are different he will have to
reconfigure the laptop each time or use a program like the one
suggested above.
