I am not sure which Kix documentation you are reading but here is what
my KIX2001.DOC file says.
" To run Kix32.exe automatically when a user logs on
On Windows 2000:
1. Open Users and Computers and select the user.
2. Right-Click, select Properties, and then select the
Profile tab.
3. In the Logon Script box, type "Kix32".
On Windows NT:
1. In User Manager, select the user.
2. On the File menu, click Properties, and then click
Profile.
3. In the Logon Script Name box, type "Kix32"."
When I add this to the fact that we are not using a BAT file at logon, I
think what I said is true.
Mark, if you would like to find out where your Kix file stops working
put the /d parameter after the Kix32 in your logon script box. That
puts Kix in Debug mode.

First off, you cannot call a kix script directly from a group policy. IE
-you cannot point your login script path to
\\servername\netlogon\logon.kix, and be able to get the script to run.
You need to launch the script via a *.bat file. AD can only run *.bat,
and *.vbs files for group policy login script support by default, but
you can use those types of files to launch your real script.
Second, if you don't want to copy kix32.exe to each of your terminal
server's system32 directory (so that it will execute *.kix files) and
you are trying to run kix32.exe off of your netlogon share, you need to
launch kix (once again from a *.bat file) with the following =
syntax.=3D20
@ECHO OFF
%0\..\Kix32.exe "scriptname.kix" (no need for quotes)
Review pages 10-15 of the kix readme for more info. (you should have
gotten the readme when you downloaded kix)
Aside from the potential issues that you may have with how you're
attempting to run kix. It is also possible that you are having group
policy problems as well. Are you attempting to add in script support to
an already properly functioning policy, or are you attempting to create
a brand new policy just to provide script support? Are you sure that
your policy is even running for users on login to your system?

Each of our domain controllers has a copy of our Kix script in the
NETLOGON share. The profile for each user points to this logon script.
After placing everything in the NETLOGON directory, I open a command
prompt, navigate to the logon script and execute it. If there are not
any errors in the script, you should be all set after this.
Hope this helps

I would like to have one place where all my TS users run there =3D
logon=3D3D20
script. From what I've found in this E-list and on Microsoft's site,
it=3D3D20
goes in to the NETLOGON share of the PDC (active directory running).
I=3D3D20
have copied the logon.kix and the Kix32.exe files to that share and
set=3D3D20
the GPO (Users, Logon) to point to it, but the thing does not run.
Can=3D3D20
this be done or do I need a local copy of the same logon script for each
TS server?
