I lost my dos path in Wk2

[comtutor]

I have several machines running a dos ap, on Win98, and working fine. I upgraded a couple machines to W2K Pro and now the ap cannot find the correct path to the data directory. I have used the "set" command and have tried actually making a .bat file to help the ap, but it cannot find the data directory even though it is in the current path statement.
For example; I want to run abc.exe, in the soap directory; so i set my path to read;

path=s:\rubberducky;s:\rubberducky\bathtub;s:\rubberducky\bathtub\soap

On the Win98 machines it works fine, but the W2k machines tell me that I am not in a data directory. When they end and I type "s:" at the cmd line, the working machines read s:\rubberducky\bathtub\soap , and the W2k machines read just s:

I have entered all possible combinations in the PIF and put the path statement in all combinations of autoexec.bat and autoexec.nt

TIA
