#44366 - 2003-08-21 11:09 AM Windows 9x script not mapping drives
moatey moatey Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-07-29 Posts: 8	I am sure this is an old problem, but I have been searching the archives and cannot find a remedy... I have a full AD domain with multiple W2K servers. I have a logon script that works 100% with W2K and XP clients. However, it does not execute any of my drive mappings (based on if ingroup function...) on 9x clients when called from a logon batch file. It performs all other functions correctly, and works fine if run from the client pc command prompt or run from the start menu. The RPC service and DLLs etc are on the servers. Any clues?

Can the Win9x clients run the login script from the command line after logon? _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

Windows 9x computers must run the login script throught a batch file, thus 'KIX32 LOGIN.KIX' for example would not work. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

moatey moatey Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-07-29 Posts: 8	Thanks, Win 9x users scripts are called from a batch file, which contains the line: %0\..\kix32.exe 95logon.kix I know that it is finding the script and executing it, as the code all executes except that which deals with drive mapping. Cheers

moatey moatey Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-07-29 Posts: 8	I have finally got to the bottom of the problem... Firstly - upgraded to Kix 4.21 The Homedrive mapping problem was solved by inserting some different code for Windows 9x users (This did not work before version upgrade). The Group drives were not mapping because I had a Return statement buried in a gosub after an endif instead of before. This was despite checking it dozens of times. Sorry for the red herrings! Thanks
