I have both 98 and XP clients on an NT 4 domain. Clients running XP SP2 are not executing the script:

net use f: "\\gateway server\g"
net use g: "\\gateway server\f"
net use h: /home
net use p: "\\gateway server\ppc"
net use t: "\\gateway server\f"

net use lpt2: "\\gateway server\epsonlq-"
net use lpt3: "\\gateway server\hp4100"
net time "\\gateway server" /set /y

Is this more likely an XP SP2 issue or an NT 4 issue? This is the first time this office has ever run XP clients so it is hard to say if it is an SP2 problem. XP SP2 Clients at another facility on an NT 4 Domain work just fine.

Any ideas?

Where is the script placed on the server?

Have you pointed the user account (in User Manager)to the script on the server?



21-0 and counting.

GO SOX!!!
 
C:\WINNT\system32\Repl\Import\Scripts\login.bat

And, as it should, it appears at:
\\server\NETLOGON\login.bat

Thanks

Assuming all your domain servers have a copy of the same script, under the user profile in User Manager, the script path should only be

login.bat



Also check out for a more powerful nt logon script.
 
Hey thanks for the reply. That is correct. All that is listed under User Manager for the script is login.bat

I will check out kixstart.
