The users logon to the domain of server1, correct? Are you trying to see if the user is a member of a global group in the domain of server2?
Please tell use which domain the groups belong to.

I just wanna give feedback about my problem, descripted earlier. And thank you all for your support. My problem is solved.
I want to point the need of the KXRPC service on all dc's, although the manual says, it's not neccesary but recommended. My opinion is, that it's needed on all dc's.
Info;
-Domain called VANDRA
-PDC called VANDRA00
-BDC called VANDRA01
-BDC called VANDRA05
This was the situation:
I'd only installed the KXRPC service on Vandra00, the PDC, and made an KiXtart.ini file in the Netlogon Share's.
[KXRPCMapping]
VANDRA=\\VANDRA00
Default=\\VANDRA00
This is what the ini-file looked like. I'd used the following code to test the membership;
code:
If InGroup("Beheerders") = 1 ; Local Group
? "A member of Local Group!"
Else
? "Not a member of Local Group!"
EndIf
If InGroup("Domein Beheerders") = 1 ; Global Group
? "A member of Global Group!"
Else
? "Not a member of Global Group!"
EndIf
My problem was, that I couldn't reach the Global Groups with the service on, but could reach the Local Groups. When I turned the service off, I could reach the Global Groups again, but not the Local Groups. And ofcourse I'm a member of both groups. So I didn't use the service.
This is my new situation:
I've installed the KXRPC serive on all DC's. And deleted the KiXtart.ini file. And quess what. . ., it worked fine! All domain info is returned correctly for the few Windows 9x workstations on our domain.

I just founf out something really interesting:
In c:\windows\temp I found kixtart.log.
In kixtart.log was the following line:
"Error occured during retrieval of network information: Access is denied. (0x5/5)"
To what network resourses does kix need access?

You stated that you are logging on to the domain at server1.
Again, please tell if the global groups that are failing are in the domain on server1 or the domain of server2.
Since the "logon domain" is that of server1 (I wish zz_vf_zz would give use some names to reference), the KXRPC service is not needed on server2 because it is not a DC in the logon domain.
We still do not know what version of KiXtart you are using. Please execute the code (macro printouts) supplied by Lonkero so that we have additional information with which to help understand what may be wrong here.

O.K. server1 = LogonServer;
server2 = FileServer
Almost all the macros return blank, except:
KIX 3.47
PRIV Guests
LSERVER FileServer
LDRIVE Z:
The groups that are failing defined in the domain of LogonServer.
There is no problem with groups defined in the domain of FileServer (If I define a temp user in domain of FileServer, and logon to it, I get both global groups and local groups correctly)
The users are defined in the domain of LogonServer.
Again, domain on FileServer is just for historical reasons.
Thanks,
V.F.

Also, all the users in the domain of LogonServer are also members of global group NTFS_PERMISIONS, which includes NTFS permisions for FileServer to allow them to access files on FileServer.

Hi,
I'm not sure it would solve my problem - kix.log says that I have an access problem to retrieve network resources (See my message above).
Can it change in the newer version?
Could you please explain what kind of network resourses does kix need access to?
Thanks allot,
V.F.
