samba - Mar 2005 - Logon script

Hey everybody;

I've got a problem with a Windows 98 machine on my network. I use Samba as a
storage server with a folder for every user. To create network drives I use
a script that will be copied to the client and then executed whenever a
machine logs on to the domain.
So far everything works fine. The script is being executed on logon.
However, the network drive can never be found afterwards. The funny thing
about all this is that if I execute the same script on a client later on, it
creates the network drive just fine. I assume it has something to do with
the timing of the logon process and the creation of the network drive.

Has anybody experienced similar problems or can give me a hint where to look
for a solution?
Thanks for all your help in advance,

Hi, i'm having roubles with samba as PDC, i want to modify some registry
keys
(relates with windows update) in  XP & 2000 clients. I've tryed logons
scripts
but  it seems that i don have enough permissions to do that, so i tried to do a
ntconfig.pol but when the client logs on domain y just get the file
(ntconfig.pol) and any changes are made.

So how can i modify windows registry keys?

Thanks

You can also use regini.exe to paste
registry entries during logon.
One of our admins set up a batch
file to update the proxy settings this way.
(both files need to be in the NETLOGON share dir)
>From logon.bat (logon script):
REM * Requirements: Network access to %LOGONSERVER%\NETLOGON, regini.exe
*
REM * Restrictions: NT Intel
*
REM
*************************************************************************
if "%CMDPATH%"=="" set CMDPATH=%LOGONSERVER%\NETLOGON
%CMDPATH%\regini.exe %CMDPATH%\proxy.ini
>From proxy.ini:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings
    ProxyEnable = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
    ProxyHttp1.1 = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
    ProxyServer = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:80
    ProxyOverride = <LOCAL>; *.mycompany.com; intranetserver.mycompany.com

Hope this helps,
  Jim
