I'm having a problem using the Ingroup statement for Win9x systems. I am running Kixtart on an NT network environment. Although the Ingroup statment works fine for NT/2000 machines, it does not on Win9x systems. I have verified that the .DLL files are there, and I have the KXRPC service running on the PDC and BDCs, but no success.
For example:

If Ingroup ("CA-TO-GM")
ENDIF
Run "Net use J: \\Servername\Share"

If Ingroup ("CA-WH-WP")
ENDIF
Run "Net use K: \\Servername\Share"

Quit

Any help is appreciated.

Maybe try something like this.

code:

---

If Ingroup ("CA-TO-GM")<>0
	use J: "\\Servername\Share"
ENDIF

If Ingroup ("CA-WH-WP")<>0
	use K: "\\Servername\Share"
ENDIF
QUIT

---

The <>0 helps to verify membership for either local or domain.

You do not appear to be doing any real checking, your code to run is outside the IF statement. KiXtart supports mapping drives without shelling out and running the NET USE command.

Without really running your code I would assume that regardless of membership... All systems that "understand" your code would map both J: and K: every logon regardless of group membership since it comes after the IF ENDIF statement.

As the code looks here, the NT/2000 machines should not be running it any better then Win9x systems. Except that they may understand the Run "Net use J: \\Servername\Share" statement and the Win9x systems are actually erroring on it.

Give the code above a try and let us know how it goes.

code:

---

If ingroup ("CA-TO-GM")
    use j: "\\Server\Share"
endif
If ingroup ("CA-WH-WP")
    use K: "\\Servername\Share"
endif
quit

---

should do it also ...
