Does anyone know how to have a win98 client logging in to
a W2K server (Domain) run a login script? Many people are
telling me that it can't be done. I don't see why not
though.
 
Ofcourse it can be done. Make sure that on the userprofile-tab the
loginscriptfiels is pointing to the right batchfile.
Make sure WINS is installed on the server and also options 044 and 046 (0x8)
in DHCP-server, Scope options.
When the W98 client is loggin in with a valid username, it should run the
loginscript automatically.

Yes, I have WINS installed on the server, and 044 and 046
are both there as well. Any thoughts?
 
Can you run the logonscript manually?

Yes,

On the client, after it logs on, I can run
\\server\netlogon\script.bat and the script runs, does
everything it's supposed to.
 
I had a similar problem when my login script started with:
net use * /delete /yes

Win95/98/ME would not go beyond that command in a login script. Worked
manually, but not as part of the login process. . .

Start with some basic commands in your login.bat file and add more once you
are sure they will work.
 
Put a pause on the first line and login with that client. Can you see the
script run?
