wjohnson2000 wjohnson2000 Just in Town Registered: 2010-07-30 Posts: 3 Loc: Marietta, OH USA	Hi All, I have a logon script that has been working fine for 5 years on a Windows 2003 AD Domain. Recently it stopped working. I run the script from the NETLOGON share and have kix32.exe in the users profile. When a user logs on KIX32 flashes on the screen but the script doesn't run, I can run it fine by doing it manually - \\DC02\NETLOGON\kix32. I put a DEBUG ON statement in the top of the script to see if it was even being called and it's not. When the problems started I upgraded to the latest stable version of kix32.exe and that didn't help either. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Start with basics... make a simple batch file (in Netlogon) that has a pause in it. Put the name of the bat file in the user profile, and then login to make sure the user sees that. Then add kix32 /? on the first line of the bat and make sure you see the help text of kix. Then add your script name to it. Check eventlogs too.

Maybe force the wait for network GPO. Clients may be logging on with cached creds and not waiting for the network. Check your network providers and order for possible need to tweek. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.
