why have all the different scripts?
Make groups. Accounting, Sales Etc
then use ingroup in kix or ifmember to set the individual dept settings that
are different within the one script. Use some goto's in there to skip them
around the parts that don't apply to keep it fast.
Then you only have one script to deal with.
here's a snip from my kix login script. I have one login script for nine
locations and about 20 departments:
;map common drives
;skip the front desk group
IF ingroup ("Front Desks") = 1
GOTO Printers
ENDIF
; everyone else
USE P: "\\server\Public"
USE T: "\\server\ADPTC"
;Corporate
IF ingroup ("Corporate") = 1
USE F: "\\server\Finance"
USE J: "\\server\HarbourHealth"
USE K: "\\server\SylvanHealth"
USE L: "\\server\LakeHarris"
ENDIF

Subject: [windows2000] Wit's end with login scripts
Am I the only person in the world who deals with flaky login scripts?
Recently did an Active directory migration, but even before that I had
intermittent problems with these batch files. Sometimes they'll run without
a hitch for months. Then one day an H drive won't map or a home drive won't
show up. Or just one drive mapped in a kix script will map and the others
won't. Ugh. I'm using a combination of batch files that call kix scripts.
There are many different scripts that this is happening to as each
department has their own. Even when I run the script with a pause statement
to follow it's progress, no errors pop up, the drives just don't map. Is it
me??
