Win2K doesn't exec logon script

[Jan-Pieter van den Heuvel]

Hi,

I don't know much about Win2K, but I believe you need a logon script like
netlogon.bat (a batch file). This file should be in your netlogon share.
I wouldn't make your logon path /home/samba/netlogon, but give every user
it's own logon path (this is where the roaming profiles are stored).
Example: logon path = \\PROFILESERVER\PROFILE\%U

Onderwerp: Win2K doesn't exec logon script


When I boot a Win2K client it should execute the Samba (v2.2.1a, on Linux
2.4.12) netlogon script, but it doesn't.  What am I doing wrong?

The global section of my smb.conf is shown below.  This config, including
the netlogon script, has been working great with Win9x and OS/2.  Please be
gentle as I am a total Win2K newbie.

A few notes:

0. Names used:

  a. My client user name = steve
  b. My client machine name = pluto
  c. My workgroup = snydernet
  d. Name of machine running Samba server = sunburn

1. I am able to browse the shares and to manually map any share to the
appropriate service (drive or printer).  Once mapped the share works fine.

2.  I accasionally see this messages in the Samba log for my Win2K client:

  [2001/10/12 10:17:44, 0] smbd/nttrans.c:call_nt_transact_ioctl(1798)
    call_nt_transact_ioctl: Currently not implemented.

3. I'm suspicious of a few Win2K environment variables, especially
"LOGONSERVER=\\PLUTO".  Shouldn't the name be the name of my Samba server
(sunburn)?

4. The IPC$ seems to be active (as shown in smbstatus output) a long time.
Is it timing out?

5. Win2K does not display any warning or error messages with which I could
diagnose this problem.  It seems to simply not run the script.
