Hi.
Each logon in my network (samba) the XP loads the cmd window
minimized, ok/normal. Is possible to log on and restore the cmd window
for users read & see what is processing? if possible with centralized
window.
I dunno if it is possible with vbs, BTW I dunno that.
thanks.

We don't know what is starting your CMD window now. Perhaps
a shortcut in the Startup group or something similar....?

If you had it changed to use "Start /Max" in front of the command that
invokes the cmd window then is SHOULD open Maximized:

start /max CMD

I am unsure if that is what you are asking but it seems to answer your
post.

Hi Herb.
So, my network there are Samba as server and Win9x/XP as clients.
the network script is from netlogon, a file in /home/
netlogon/"%username%.bat"

After that any user type your username/password on Logon Windows
domain, the own "user.bat" do "call stuff.bat", but only on XPs the
"user.bat" loads minimized, on Win9x its centralized (normal).

The script its working fine, I´m justing finding a way to loads this
stuff.bat or the proper user.bat not minimized on XPs.

using start/max doesn't work in this case, because the stuff.bat is on
each user batch (+300 users - Please i dont want to re-write all
them)..

does exist an internal command to "get up" his own window?
like that (on stuff.bat):
IF "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" restore ($MeWindow);

Thanks anyway.

Start it /max if you wish.

They really should be the SAME command (if they have the same
contents, or even mostly the same contents). Each bat should
call a "stock batch" file for the majority of the processing with the
user specific "wrapper" setting up everything that is user specific,
perhaps by using environment variables.
