Subject: HKEYs used for mount in NT registry

Is there any way to control which HKEY is used to store mount information 
in the registry?

Poking through the registry I find mounts 00 - 1d in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, 
which have no value assigned to them, and the mounts that appear to be used 
in HKEY_CURRENT_USER.

This works just fine as long as only one person uses the machine.  When 
multiple persons are using a PC you have to set up the mounts every time a 
different person logs on.  Keeping the mounts on 10 machines with 13 people 
using them becomes a nightmare.
