Login Script appearing not to run

[HandyAndy]

Just upgraded Netware 3.2 to 5.1 and installed the latest client (downloaded last week) and the standard script does not run anymore. I am using a single script for all users set up with groups. However I have a shortcut on a user's Win95 desktop to a program on a mapped drive and when he uses it the mapping seems to magically appear. Any help would be much appreciated.

Did you make sure to enable the ability for the netware client to run the container script? There is a feature if you click on the advanced tab on an NT workstation that allows you to run the contianer script. On a 95/98 machine, you will need to configure the properties of the Novell client. Once done, the mappings should work just fine.

Hope this helps

The problem has been solved, it was not a problem with the script but a problem with the security settings. The security did not restore from the tape and had to be manually reset, once set the drive mappings re-appeared with no change to the script settings.
