Hi,

My network information is as follows:
1) I've got Novell 4.1 and 5.1 servers in my network.
2) The PCs are running Windows 98 and Netware client 3.2
3) I've got a VBScript that was created mainly for pure Windows 2000 environment. The purpose of this VBscript is to scan the PC for certain software.

What I want to know, without doing any extra heavy work, is there or is it possible to have the Novell Logon script to pick up my VBscript when the user logon? If so, what do I need to do? Please if you going to provide assistance, could you be specific as I'm not familiar with Netware, I just inherited the system. Thank you very much.

the best way i can think of doing it is to create a batch file to run the VBscript. (Not sure of how to do this, think you use the cscript command)

You can then modify the login script to run the batch file.
(this is done from the netware administrator)

Put an entry #<path>\batchfile.
This will run the batchfile.

You can put the batchfile and VBscript on the netware server somewhere where everyone can access it (possibly SYS:public)
 
See the responses to the same post in the NetWare 5 forum...

your batchfile could look like this:

wscript c:\yourscript.vbs
