ok,
heres the problem.

W2K server:
~ I created a login script called login2.vbs
~~~~
Const test123_GROUP = "cn=test123"


Set wshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "h:",
"\\trixnite\home\" & wshNetwork.UserName

Set ADSystemInfo = CreateObject("delos")
Set CurrentUser = GetObject("LDAP://" &
delos.UserName)
strGroups = LCase(Join(CurrentUser.MemberOf))

If InStr(strGroups, test123_GROUP) Then

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "s:",
"\\trixnite\temp\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\trixnite\laserjet4"

End If
~~~~
~ I placed in \\trixnite\script, I gave the everyone group read access to it.
~ I created the path to in the login path for the user in properties inder the profile tap\login script
~ When I login as that user I don't see the script run and it does not map the drive or add the printer.

~ Sorry it this seems stupid, I am new to microsoft scripts.
Thoughts?
Thanks,

Just from what you posted what I see are syntax errors.
For example:

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "s:",
"\\trixnite\temp\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection
"\\trixnite\laserjet4"

This should actually be two lines not four.
Should look like:

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "s:", "\\trixnite\temp\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\trixnite\laserjet4"

Sorry accidently hit post...
If the lines are long and you want to break them up, you need to use the underscore character to tell the scripting engine that the line continues. Like the following:

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "s:", _
"\\trixnite\temp\"
wshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection _
"\\trixnite\lasterjet4"

Here is where I see other syntax errors, with regard to line breaks that shouldn't be there:

wshNetwork.MapNetworkDrive "h:",
"\\trixnite\home\" & wshNetwork.UserName
Set CurrentUser = GetObject("LDAP://" &
delos.UserName)
