#145107 - 2005-08-09 06:28 PM Problems running script with Windows 2000 Pro
born2net born2net Fresh Scripter Registered: 2005-07-07 Posts: 8	Hi everyone, Has anyone have problems running KiXtart on a Windows 2000 Pro machine? I'm having problems where I don't see the script come up. Does the "%0\..\" work for Windows 2000 Pro? Also, my users that are running the script are just normal users of the system. THANKS!!! THANKS! Born2Net

If you want your script to be visible {yuck} then you need to apply the RunLogonScriptSync GPO as explained in the FAQ. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

StarwarsKid StarwarsKid Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2005-06-15 Posts: 506 Loc: Oregon, USA	The "Call" was based on suggestions from Kent Dyer. Actually, I've been getting all sorts of recommendations on how to run KiX from a batch file and it seems that everyone's recommendations are met with comments that the methods are poor or incorrect. Is there a once-and-for-all way I should be running KiXtart from a BATch file that meets all KiXtart requirements? _________________________ let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance- Proverbs 1:5

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	the call line, if given by kent should be fixed by kent. it's wrong. call is for calling batch files in batch files. in kixtart script it's for calling kixtart scripts. in batch files you can use: %0\..\kix32.exe %0\..\kixtart.kix or %LOGONSERVER%\NETLOGON\kix32.exe %LOGONSERVER%\NETLOGON\kixtart.kix or kix32.exe kixtart.kix or kix32.exe or kix32 or ... ______________________________________________________ the choices are endless. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Well Kent... If you read that KB article, you will see that it is not well written. Quote: %0\..\kix.exe %0\..\kix32.exe myscript.scr I did point it out to Ruud and he confirmed to me that it needs revising but it hasn't happened. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.
