Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	I did the if "%OS%" == "Windows_NT" bit and works well... I guess I wanted to echo it so I could see what server was actually takin the logon.. so I could see mainlly... I guess this is not an option no longer with the way it works (echoin back the logon server)

I've noticed less traffic across our WAN (except of course during replication). Just a thought. I just did a basic logon.bat though. code: %0\..\kix32 logon.kix Works fine on all machines. Except I have to install the DSClient on the Win9x machines. Nuff rambling...

Addict Addict Getting the hang of it Registered: 2002-08-22 Posts: 62 Loc: Ohio, US	I do have XP Pro. On a few workstations. The login executes just fine from that. code: @echo off %0\..\kix32 logon.kix EXIT Dunno. Works ok for me on XP Pro, Win2k Pro & Win9x. I'm running Win2k servers. Unfortunately I can't switch to just the Profile setting just yet. Some of the users travel from location to location. Since not all my machines are XP, I have to leave it as such. One day I will eliminate these god-forsaken Win9x clients from my network!

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	eh, how you can make this work as even m$ says it does not work? normal %0 gives during logon: \\server\share\something.bat and xp gives: "\\server\share\something.bat" thus making %0\..\kix32 to be: "\\server\share\something.bat"\kix32 instead of: \\server\share\kix32 that's why I must wonder how it can work on your clients? _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Since only Wintendo (9x/ME) needs %0\..\, using it on NT/2K/XP is not considered "Best Practice". _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

It seems almost unusable on Pentium II or earlier machines. In a school environment, its MS' biggest dog in my opinion. Having said that, we did some limited testing with it & I believe it integrates into a network fine. XP home is something I have no familarity with but if it didn't come with at least some rudamentary networking, who would buy it? Doesn't everyone have a home network these days? [ 15.

Addict Addict Getting the hang of it Registered: 2002-08-22 Posts: 62 Loc: Ohio, US	Ahh well it works. That's all I can say. XP Home only allows you to network 5 computers and offer no domain support at all. That's part of the price tag difference. edit: I can't switch to using the setting in AD Users & computers yet. Have to rid my network of Win9x first.... [ 15. October 2002, 17:47: Message edited by: Civic_Addict ]
