There is a non-browsable share called "netlogon" on the server. This includes a simple sample netlogon.bat file.
I've created a more complex version which I've pasted below and which will do what you seem to be asking. To use it fully, you'll need to grab "winset.exe" from a Win 95 CD and do a Google search for "putinenv.exe".
Good luck,

REM Enhanced version by Des Dougan (ddougan@telus.net), March 2001.
REM
REM Updated to add code to enable use on NT/W2K, November 2001.
REM
REM Updated to fix some errors in the code to enable use on NT/W2K.
REM These caused some problems on Win 9x systems. February 2002.

REM **Windows 9x/ME systems**
REM This enhanced "netlogon.bat" script uses "winset" (an MS
REM utility which is on the Win95 CD (not sure about 98 or ME). It
REM loads environment variables extracted by "putinenv".
REM "putinenv" is a freeware utility used to read samba system variables.
REM Note: it does not pull all the variables noted in its online help
REM presumably because samba does not support all the MS LAN Manager
REM variables this was written to extract.
REM
REM **NT/Win 2000**
REM NT and W2K don't need, and can't use, "winset". Code included to
REM bypass the Win9x required stuff.
REM
REM Main code starts here

REM Set the temporarily-mapped directory containing the scripts.
Z:\

REM
REM Map the user's home directory to drive H:
net use h: /home /yes
REM
REM Map the testing shared directory tree to drive T:
REM
net use t: %SERVER%\testing /yes
REM
REM Bypass Win9x-specific section if NT/W2K (NT & W2K have a "boot.ini"
REM file, which Win9x doesn't have).
REM
if exist c:\boot.ini goto :NOT9X
REM
REM For Win 9x clients, define the name of the server this batch file
REM runs from as a global ("winset") environment variable. Server
REM name is in "\servername" format.
REM
winset SERVER=\agatha
