Hi Guys, Advise, I have 200 users, they all have access to 20 shares in different combinations. They all have their own netlogon scripts... its a management nightmare, is there a way to create a universal netlogon script that I can include all the shares to mount and it will silently fail on the ones it cant? Perhaps there is a smarter way to implement this idea, lynching is welcome, so is advice. Brad
i suggest go use kixscript
here is a small example.
connecting printers
If INGROUP ("dwangb_pr") = 1 ## if member of
dwangb_pr
CONNECTPRINTER("PDC","rol") ## connect printer
rol from server PDC
If INGROUP ("dwangb_pr_def") = 1 ## if member of
dwangb_pr_def,
SETDEFAULTPRINTER ("\\PDC\rol") ## set printer default
Sleep 0.50
EndIf
EndIf
you can do the same with groups and drive mappings.
the only thing is you get a lot of groups.
if you need a full copy of my kix script say so
and i'll email you one.
Louis

It's a good idea to start with one central logon script in the netlogon share, add the line logon script = kix32 my_logon_script.scr and - if it's more complex - call further scripts where you might differentiate between e.g. usernames (not that good, since they're changing) or groups (better, since they are more general). You might also use IF cases to e.g. sort according to the machine IPs, etc. So there are many options. Hope that helps, best Joachim

I believe we use a root preexec/postexec to run the perl script. Then the script is pointed at %U.bat. This was in the manual, last I checked, under a heading similar to "magic login script" or something like that. - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer II |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |novosirj@umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIvrPEmb+gadEcsb4RAs8pAJ42CdBaLOHv5SYDQqXC/P7lWF5oXgCgzu6B +oJN1fTEzH/6kHs02XPJc1o=fYBH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
