Rather, You don't say what scripting tools you are using or what OS. I use Kixtart on an NT 4.0 network. This is code I use in my logon.kix. I put the users first name in the Description box in usermgr then write that to the screen so the script checks the time then writes the appropriate...
yizhar, client OS is NT 4.0. I am saving my policy file as NTconfig.pol in the correct replication directory i.e. C:\winnt\system32\repl\import\scripts and just to be on the safe side, I am copying it manually to c:\winnt\system32\repl\export\scripts. Have checked to make sure what server is...
I want to set up some Group Policies. I have not had any experience with this and am hoping for some tips. I think I am following the correct procedure but they don't seem to work. Here's what I have done so far. Open the policy editor, select options, policy templates and add winnt.adm and...
I have not used policies before and am not familiar with how to apply them. I followed the steps to create a test group policy but it does not seem to work. I have a strictly NT 4.0 network (server and workstations), am using Poledit, and attaching the winnt.adm and common.adm templates. I...
I am configuring the network on several laptops running Windows 98. On one of them, the login box that appears contains the userid "Default" and I can't make it go away. This is not happening on any of the others. On first boot, the userid "Default" was there on the other...

Thanks for the input RachelD. Your suggestions were helpful. Strange thing, this particular user had never logged into the domain from an NT workstation, so we tried that and of course the permissions were set correctly. Then we logged him into the 98 machine and for some...
Yes, the user can access the directories. As far as I can see, the permissions on the directories are set correctly. I will visit microsoft today and see if there is a "fix" for it. I was hoping one of you would already have the answer and save me some time. Thanks for responding. Any...
We just moved from a Novell server to an NT 4.0 server with primarily NT workstations. We have a few laptops that travel so have to have a network connection for them when in the office. The laptops run Windows 98. We have found that when a user logs into the...
We recently created roaming profiles for our users that must log in from different workstations. It seems that when the user logs in to a new workstaion, the printer default from the previous workstation is carried with the profile. Is there a way to set the printer for the...
