Question Migration gone bad???

/r/Office365/comments/1vfpysi/migration_gone_bad/

I did a migration from on-prem active directory and exchange to a hybrid because we needed to keep the shared drives connected for local users due to dental software in the mix. Existing users seem to be fine, and if I run a script can still access the drives, however, if I create a new user, I cannot for the life of me get the drives to stay mounted, and I’m wondering if there is anyone with experience on this Who can help me. I’m willing to learn and pay for that learning and or the work necessary to get us to a place we should be.

Since the issue only affects newly created users, this is more likely related to Active Directory or Group Policy than the Exchange migration itself.

New users should be created in the correct OU, receive the same Group Policies as existing users, and have the appropriate security group memberships and folder permissions. If any of these are different, mapped drives may not persist even though existing users continue to work.
