Default Question about Group Policy & mapped network drives.

I was going through Group Policy looking at the different policies (gpedit.msc /a) and somehow I can't see my Novell mapped drives under My Computer. I've looked at every policy and may have inadvertently set one but can't remember which one I set. Is there a policy for blocking mapped network drives or hiding them from My Computer?

I checked all those and they are set to Not Configured. Actually, my co-worker was playing a joke on me. Hkey_Current_User\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer\ a dword value called NoDrive with a string value set to 0xF to hide all drives.
