so not sure what happened here.... my batch file was working, then something changed (damned techs), and now it doesn't. Seeing as its been a couple years since I set it up, not sure why its not working. The XCOPY command looks to the login server, checks to see if the files on the server are newer than on the client. If they are newer, it copies them down to the client, then runs the script from the client. This allows me to make a change to the dcmetro.kix file and then have it deployed to everyone at next logon.

help making this work again is appreciated

    @ECHO OFF
    REM ----------------------------------------------------------------
    REM Copy Kix Files to PC, Update DCMETRO Script if Newer
    REM ---------------------------------------------------------------
    ECHO Y|XCOPY %0\..\KIX32.EXE C: /D /H /I /R > NUL
    ECHO Y|XCOPY %0\..\DCMETRO.KIX C: /D /H /I /R > NUL
    ECHO Y|XCOPY %0\..\WKIX32.EXE C: /D /H /I /R > NUL


    C:

    C:\kix32.exe DCMETRO.kix

    Exit

nope. I tried that and get an unrecognized command. Also tried "cd\", but that doesn't work either.

ok so I bailed on it. Seeing how I no longer have 9x machines, I took out some things, then realized the script wasn't that long anyway so I just had it run from the logon server instead of copying files local, so now i'm down to this for my 2K/XP machines.

@ECHO OFF
KIX32.EXE DCMETRO.KIX

Exit

why don't you loose the batch altogether?

anyways, unrecognised command is something you will not get with proper syntax.
bet you did something else too.

If you decide to use a batch file and use kix32.exe locally, you can do it like this

Copy %logonserver%\NETLOGON\kix32.exe c:\kix32.exe

c:\kix32.exe %logonserver%\NETLOGON\kix32.exe
