I have a question regarding drive mappings and I wonder if any of you can help me.

A developer of ours has written a script that copies some files of the K: drive (a drive mapping to another server) to a specific folder. The server is logged on and locked as a specific user and everything works fine.

The thing I was wondering about is, what if there would be a power outage (for example) and the server reboots. The server would come up again and boot up to the logon screen. But would there at that point be a K: drive? Or will the (persistent) K: drive not be there until a user is logged on?

I think not and I think that therefore the script would fail.

Any thoughts on this?

P.S.
Obviously we would could argue about the way he has written his script, but I'm more curious about whether it would conceptually work...
