I install KRPC on PDC and BDC. The version is 3.63. Script works perfectly with 2000,xp and nt. Doesn't map drives when it is a 9x box with novell client. Script runs and displays properly but doesn't map. Tried callorder registry tweak but still can't map. Workgroup is same as domain. Pushed out dll.s and exe to client but still no mapping. Any other suggestions.

You should try ingroup("wanted group")> 0 for 9x clients, and if users can't change their local group, do the same for NT clients ( > 0 instead of = 1 )

If it doesn't work, put this in a temporary script and check the report :
? ""+ ingroup("group")
this will return the exact value, but i gess you get something else than 2 for 9x clients

Bertsel,
As I was looking at your script, I was wondring about the lines:
If InGroup ("CDROMTOWER") =2
If InGroup ("FirstMerit Treasury") =2
I looked up in the documentation for ingroup and it says taht the returns are a 0 if it is not a member and a 1 if it is a member of the group. Now that thing that confused me is their example says = 2 also. So, my question is What would happen if you changed the =2 to an =1 in your script.

Bertsel,
Let's start by turning assumption into fact. Cannot troubleshoot on assumptions. Here home the hundred questions.

1. You say "Doesn't map drives when it is a 9x box with novell client". Does that mean if the NetWare client is removed it maps?

2. Does the script run on these clients that don't map? Mainly, is it the InGroup function that is failing?

3. How are you calling KiX and the Script? Is it through a LOGON.BAT file?

4. How do you have the 'Logon Script Name:' setup in the 'User Environment Profile'?

Thanks for the help I have it figured out. I pushed down to the client the script and kix32 and dll depending on version and this took care of all problems. Everything is working smoothly in all enviroments except Terminal services and sometimes XP. Hmmm.... Thanks for the help though.
