When logging in apart from the master replica server which works 99% of the time the mappings may error with error code 8884 and will not map but the next mapping to a secondary sever is fine. Reversing the order of the mappings may cause the server mapping that failed to be correctly mapped the working one to fail. The whole login process is also very slow. I have manually mapped the drives in Windows they will eventually connect but after a considerable wait between 1 - 10 minutes.
