#1914 - 2000-03-07 11:27 AM Win98 clients won't run "USE" in IF statements
Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	my Win98 clients won't run the "USE" command in IF statements. No mapping is present after logon. I use a batchfile for logon (%0\..\Kix32.exe Logon.kix) all dlls etc are in my logon directory.(have also tried them in the windows dir locally) kxrpc is running on PDC & BDC's. MSNET32 is updated. "IF" statements are based on Global groups with names no longer than 8 characters. Kix version = 3.62 Clients are mapping with the ($Drive;$Share;$SrvList.) statments but not with USE. HELP !!!

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	Here is a small sample of the script the funny thing is that the first three mappings work perfectly, but the use command (to a member server incidentally) dose not. The script works perfectly for NT clients. Also, if I am already logged on and I manually run my logon batch file by double clicking it in the netlogon dir, hey presto all the mappings suddenly appear. if ingroup("group1")=1 ;Test if user is Group1 $Drive = "V:" $Share = "\dept1" $SrvList = "01" GOSUB "Connect" $Drive = "W:" $Share = "\dept2" $SrvList = "01" GOSUB "Connect" $Drive = "Y:" $Share = "\dept3" $SrvList = "00" GOSUB "Connect" USE Z: "\\server2\drivers$" ENDIF

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	I bet if you change the z: to another letter it will work. Win9x uses the z: during logon. That's why it will work after you are logged on. Hope this helps, Bonk

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	My problem with the USE "Z:" seems to be remedied, but now my Win98 clients won't map to (USE X: "\\server00\@userid" + $)see under. I'm thinking, could it be a problem that it's the last drive beening used (eg first a problem with Z then with X). I will try a dummy mapping to "z" and get back to you. If anyone has a suggestion in the meantime, please advise. IF INGROUP ("HOMELESS")=1 $Drive = "X:" $Share = "\Home" ; Home dirs $SrvList = "00" GOSUB "Connect" ELSE USE X: "\\server00\@userid" + $ ENDIF

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	Did you make sure that all the necessary dll's are on the NETLOGON share? I have similar problem like this before. Perhaps this will help.BB Bao
