Are you referring to domain logons?  Windows NT and 95 
handle things very differently.  Actually I mentioned this 
problem to Luke back in August of last year.  The issue is that 
during a domain logon, it is the machine that has the connection
and not the user.  If I remember correctly, this is the case up 
to the mounting of the user's home directory.  That is why you 
see the %U being expanded to nobody.  I'm guesing what you 
want to do is to use the include and %U to set things passed 
by back in the USER_INFO_21 struct (is that the right one?)
during logon.



Cheers,
