Hi Mike,
You may need to create the netlogon folder in your Samba directory tree.
Samba is installed on my servers in /usr/local/samba - netlogon is a
subfolder of that, with scripts being a subfolder of the netlogon
directory.
My logon scripts are therefore in /usr/local/samba/netlogon/scripts and
are owned by root.root, readable by all. Find your Samba directory and
have a look for the netlogon folder there.
I hope that helps!
Andy

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
