The primary purpose of kixtart is to provide your script with variables such "username" "group", etc. On NT workstation these are already defined with in the environmental variables built-in to NT & thus in a pure NT LAN a lot of the reason for using kixtart is lost. On the other hand, these variables are not built-in to Windows 95 - kixtart together with the kxrpc service gives these variables to you so Windows 95 becomes more NT like.

Kixtart secondary role is as DOS or script extender. It gives you a lot of "nice to have" functions that makes writing scripts easier.

Reading your notes, you seem rather new to the whole of issue of logons and scripts. I suggest you do some surfuring & check out some sites on "NT scripting" and "NT logon scripts". See also if you can get a basic text on NT server management. This site is not really appropriate for bootstraping you on general NT management issues. There are other forums that do deal with general NT management issues. Check these out.
