Title: netlogon.bat
Post by: kippi on February 10, 2010, 10:58:18 AM

Hi

I seem to be having a problem with netlogon.bat. It seems to be working fine on windows vista but on a few of my other machine that are XP are not running the script correctly.

If I run the script \\my-server-ip\netlogon\netlogon.bat all works fine, just isn't running when they first login.

Could someone help me troubleshoot this.

Many Thanks

Chris

Thanks

Hey

Sorry to waste everyones time but it's nothing to do with SME server its because I am trying to delete all network drives and then map new drives and it doesn't seem to like it.

Many Thanks

Chris.

Look up the command
net use

Something like this works

net use /delete H: /yes
net use /delete J: /yes
net use /delete K: /yes
net use /delete P: /yes
net use /delete R: /yes
net use /delete S: /yes
net use /delete T: /yes
net use /delete U: /yes
net use /delete Y: /yes
net use H: /home
net use J: \\server\cd-dvd
net use K: \\server\k
net use P: \\server\p
net use R: \\server\r
net use S: \\server\s
net use T: \\server\t
net use U: \\server\u
net use Y: \\server\y
net use \\server\hplaserxxxx
net use \\server\hplaserxxxx
net time \\server /set /yes
net use /delete Z: /yes

Just add a line for each letter of the alphabet
net use /delete D: /yes
net use /delete E: /yes
net use /delete F: /yes
net use /delete G: /yes
and so on ......
net use /delete X: /yes
net use /delete Y: /yes
net use /delete Z: /yes

or, in a easier way, you can simply do

NET USE * /DELETE /Y

This will clear all mapped drives, without prompting, and allow you to create new ones without conflict.

This is where the problems come. Everything is fine up to the point of adding in NET USE * /DELETE /Y and it stops re-mapping the drives.

Many Thanks

Chris

you'll find many results..

anyway, you din not answer my previous question: are you using smeserver-loginscripts contrib?

I know how to remove drives it when you add it to their logon script that it stops the other drives from mapping.

I did download this and install it but have not used it yet, I am using:

call  \\192.168.20.250\netlogon\scripts\%USERNAME%.bat to load the users login script.

Thanks

Chris.

Ok,

Long and short of it all I needed to do was to add C: at the start of my netlogon script and all is working now.

Thanks for all your help.

Chris.
