i`ve a Master Domain concept. My NT4.0 Workstations runs fine, but my Win95/98 make trouble.
On my Login Domain i run a "start.bat" from Netlogon.
--- Start.bat ----
@ECHO OFF
net use x: \\srv1\netlogon
x:
%0\..\Kix32 login.kix
EXIT

The Kix-script runs fine, but the "NT-Logon Windows" doesn`t close (only under Win95/98).

Has anyone a idea ?
Thanks from Germany

(sorry for my english) :-)

First of all, you should run the Kix program from the netlogon share that is automaticaly connected at drive letter Z:.
Then start a batch file like you're start.bat with the following code in it.

%0\..\Kix32 %0\..\Login.kix

Good Luck,

I have to disagree about that. The KXRpc service is only needed when you want to use extended functions like @FullName and group membership.
Please refer to the manual ( page 8 ).

Sorry Jochen

I think it`s better to tell you more of the Domaim. There a many Domains, the login domain is in Netherlands (PDC) and the BDC is in Germany. On PDC & BDC in the share "NETLOGON" is the Start.bat, on a Trusted Domain in Germany (PDC & BDC)is the Kix32 (in the Share NETLOGON). I think Win95/98 can`t go back to end the "Start.bat", so the "NT Login Window" hangs.

Greetings.

This is what you should do. Keep the Kix Program and the Kix Scripts all on the same NETLOGON Share. Why spread them over different logon shares at different domains?. I doubt that win9X can deal with that properly. Even NT WS. ( Sorry Jochen ). But it's a hard thing to do such things over trusted domains because of the user privilages etc.

first thaks for your answer.
I spread them over differend domains, because there a differend Admins, one from Netherlands and one from Germany <smile> and the Logon Domain must be the "Netherlands".

Ralf

If i'll understand that correct you logon to the Netherlands domain and want to run a login script from youre own server ?

In that case youre start.bat should look like this.

Net use X: \\localserver\share
%0\..\Kix32 X:\login.kix ; %0\..\ is youre path to the netlogon share.
exit

Jos.

\\server\share\kix32 \\server\share\logon.kix

of course, if you delete drive mapping in your script, you may get dr watson errors, so you will need to copy the kix32.exe file to your clients, then call the script like this...

%windir%\kix32 \\server\share\logon.kix

look for the batchfile in a pervious post titled, can someone test this fo me

here's another suggestion (referring to the Master Domain Concept!)

I don't know what level of 'solutionproviding' You have Ralf ,
but wouldn't it be natural to place the logon-script
in the repl$-folder of Your Master PDC ?
-> setting replication to his own Netlogon-folder and to every single Resource-Domain-Controler (setting replication interval accordingly to the WAN-Speed)....
Think i remember it correctly when i say that the Resource-Domains trusts the Master Domain?!?!?! (->Years and day since i thought bout that)

Next step would be ammending the Script that it fits all of Your login requests! (in every Domain)... ok that will grow the script to a pair of kbytes , but this is the easiest way to handle.

-> Think of dividing it into several Sections where You can hop to from the start ,
after deciding 'where the User is....

hope this gives a little hint!

Greetings Jochen

P.S.:this Solution must be well-implemented and thought-through
