Dear all,

We've been using Kix for years without problems, until now. Let me give you some more details:

Each of our site in Europe is starting the script with a batch looking like that:

%0\..\kix32.exe %0\..\script.kix

The only exception was in France (Ah, French!). They were still calling the script with the 'old' method:

NET USE Z: \\BDC\NETLOGON
KIX32 SCRIPT.SCR
C:
NET USE Z: /DELETE /YES >NUL

The disadvantage of this (mapping Z is that it will force KIX to use short names (SCRIPT~1.KIX) when done on Windows 95.
This morning I've changed that script to the %0\..\ trick, but KIX returns empty @UserID and InGroup()!!! Howerever, this works in other sites.

Who has seen that before? Thanks in advance for any hint.

can't see the script that does not work,
can't quess why it does not work.
but if they've been so french, check also their kix32 version. it can go as low as 3.01 or just to 3.36 not work.

check also:


"
Windows 9x clients must install both Kix32.exe and two dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) called KX16.DLL and KX32.DLL.
"

they have to be from the same package as the exe. i.e. the same version.

Well, I've checked the obvious: kix32.exe, kx32.dll and kx16.dll are version 3.55. No kx95.dll messing around.

Maybe I should try to map IPC$ on the DC?

(Et voilà encore une après-midi de perdue!)

I'll do some more extended checks and post my results.

Guess what, I have that 53 error in kixtart.log:

Failed to determine logonserver (0x35/53)

It seams that the problem occurs with only 2 BDCs out of 3, maybe those servers are the culprits...
