IF NOT EXIST %windir%\kx95.dll copy \\servername\netlogon\kx95.dll %windir%

$u=@USERID
$c=SUBSTR("$u",1,4) ; department of the user
$x=lcase("$c")

SELECT
CASE $x="depa" OR $x="depb" OR $x="depc"
use k: "\\servername\appl" ; map appl dir
use l: "\\servername1\data" ; map data dir
use i: "\\servername\@USERID" ; map home dir

SELECT
CASE $x="depa"
use p: "\\servername\Data1" IF (INGROUP("GPDEPA_SQUAD_K") OR INGROUP("GPDEPA_SQUAD_ONLY_K"))
use j: "\\servername\Data1" ENDIF

CASE $x="depb"
IF INGROUP("GPDEPB_A_ASSEZ")
use n: "\\servername\assez" ENDIF


ENDSELECT

CASE $x="depd" OR $x="depe"
use g: "\\servername2\appl" ; map appl dir
use h: "\\servername2\data" ; map data dir
use i: "\\servername2\@USERID" ; map home dir

SELECT
CASE $x="depd"
IF INGROUP("GPDEPD_A_ASSEZ")

e) When a Windows 95 client logs onto the domain (Windows 2000) domain, the scripts does not run. In fact I suspect Kixtart did not start at all.

f) Help! Which part did I do wrongly. Did I omit any steps? Thanks a million.

quote:

---

Specify just the file name "logon.bat" you do not need the full UNC path to the file.

Aside from that, it all looks good.
