I have a simple script below. The user belongs to the RADONC-FAC group and the RADONC group. The user gets the first two drive mappings under RADONC-FAC but never gets the RADONC J: drive. The same thing happens with other users of different groups. Any reason why this would not work? I'm new to Kixtart and not very sofisticated when it comes to scripting in it. Any help would be great.

if ingroup("radonc-fac")
use h:"\\unmcrad\radusers"
use i:"\\unmcrad\radonc-fac"
endif

if ingroup("radonc-staff")
use h:"\\unmcrad\radusers"
use i:"\\unmcrad\radonc-staff"
endif

if ingroup("radonc-rsrch")
use h:"\\unmcrad\radusers"
use i:"\\unmcrad\radonc-rsrch"
endif

if ingroup("radonc")
use j:"\\unmcrad\radonc-share"
endif

There are no spaces between driveletter and share. Try this:
code:
if ingroup("radonc-fac")
  use h: "\\unmcrad\radusers"
  use i: "\\unmcrad\radonc-fac"
endif

if ingroup("radonc-staff")
  use h: "\\unmcrad\radusers"
  use i: "\\unmcrad\radonc-staff"
endif

if ingroup("radonc-rsrch")
  use h: "\\unmcrad\radusers"
  use i: "\\unmcrad\radonc-rsrch"
endif

if ingroup("radonc")
  use j: "\\unmcrad\radonc-share"
endif
And please post code between [CODE] tags.

I'm using version 4.02 Kixtart and Windows 2000 for client and server OS. Putting a space in between the drive letter and share doesn't help. Thanks.

Is this a new group? Have you read the manual about group token cache?

No it's not a new group. I ran it for the heck of it anyway and no change. Am I supposed to be able to have a user a member of two groups and expect mappings for each with the script I've listed above? It seems like it is not running through the entire script.

Have a look at these functions for drive mapping ideas / solutions...

YAMD()

MAPDRIVE()

MAPDRIVES()

KatZ,
What you need to do is a bit of testing to see where exactly it is failing. I don't know if you copyied and pasted that snippet of code directly or if you retyped it.

Throw together a small test script and include some verbose comments and/or run it with debug on so you can see where it is failing. Maybe the script never gets to the last IF or maybe the InGroup() is failing or possibly the USE is the problem.

code:
Break on
if ingroup("radonc")
  "InGroup RADONC passed" ?
  use "j:" "\\unmcrad\radonc-share"
  @error+' ['+@SError+']' ?
endif

Hi KatzS,

is drive J: not mapped at all, or is it mapped to some other share?
Also it might be helpfull to first delete the existing mappings, before remapping them, like so:

code:
 
if ingroup("radonc-fac")
  use h: /d /persistent
  use i: /d /persistent
  use h: "\\unmcrad\radusers"
  use i: "\\unmcrad\radonc-fac"
endif
if ingroup("radonc-staff")
  use h: /d /persistent
  use i: /d /persistent
  use h: "\\unmcrad\radusers"
  use i: "\\unmcrad\radonc-staff"
endif
if ingroup("radonc-rsrch")
  use h: /d /persistent
  use i: /d /persistent
  use h: "\\unmcrad\radusers"
  use i: "\\unmcrad\radonc-rsrch"
endif
if ingroup("radonc")
  use j: /d /persistent
  use j: "\\unmcrad\radonc-share"
endif
Good luck.

Brian

And sprinkle
code:
? 'Error Code '+@ERROR+' - '+@SERROR
throughout your code to see which statements complete successfully.
