Hi,
I've finally been dragged kicking and screaming into the wonderful world of
XP.
I've been able to join a domain and login with the help of the docs on
samba.org and
gleaning info from this list. Google and I don't get along.
My question is How do I get the logon script to run when XP logs in? Win 98
doesn't
have a problem running the logon script.
Here is part of the smb.conf:
[global]
comment = Home based server
server string = Samba Server v2.2.7
netbios name = OciCat
workgroup = CRANDELL
security = server
encrypt passwords = yes
preferred master = yes
domain logons = yes
domain master = yes
local master = yes
logon script = %U.bat
logon drive = H:
logon path add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g
users -s /dev/false
-M %u
The batch files exist and are working with Win98.
I miss DOS.
Thanks

It should work well. Also logon path is where you want to store profiles, usually logon path = \\crandell\profiles\%u that would create a dir for each user that logs in. also recomend using logon home = \\crandell\profiles\%u I don't totally understand why they haven't been integrated into one, but the logon home handles 9x machines. Good luck, hope this works. Kyle Loree Rendek Communications Kyle@caisnet.com
If I change logon script = %U.bat to logon script = %U.cmd Will the login script still work for Win 98?

I keep profiles local so "logon path" needs to be as I have it. The problem here is that the login script does not run with XP. It does run with Win 98. What's the difference and why me? Thanks
