if you have win2k, I would recommend using the WSH host + vb or jscript.... even better than kix.... -----Original Message----- From: Greg Reese [mailto:GReese@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 12 August 2003 14:53 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Logon Scripting I think ScriptLogic is just prepackaged Kix that you pay for. From what I have seen, there is not much you can't do wit Kix. They have great forums. I know squat about scripting and I was able to muddle through things with some help from the list and the forums. You can download the reference manual from their website. Give it a scan and it will probably answer most of your questions.

And more importantly, is there any type of way I can use standard login scripting to check only the first 3 or 4 characters of the %COMPUTERNAME%. I know I could do somethingl ike that using LEFT in KIX but we may purchase ScriptLogic and I don't want to deploy KIX and shortly after have to redeploy another product. But I need to get something setup until that time. *********************************************************************************** EDF Energy plc internet e-mail disclaimer This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and may be protected by legal privilege.
