#25396 - 2002-07-18 11:14 PM WinXP new users can't find Kix32.exe
Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	WinXP new users can't find Kix32.exe Computer lab situation with an NT4 server and logon script. Any new user logging on gets an error that it doesn't know what program to use to run logon.kix. I have to browse to Kix32.exe and then all is OK. I can't seem to make this association part of a default profile and it doesn't seem to matter where I put the file. What to do???

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	Looks like the following is true: Win98 start /b %0\..\wkix32.exe profile.kix Win XP start /b wkix32.exe profile.kix Therefore do you have to identify the system first and make two sections of the script, one for Win98 and one for XP and go there with an IF????

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	glen the difference is not actually just between win9x and xp. win9x is not actually real networkable system. xp is the product of nt series: nt (4.0), win2000 (5.0) and xp (5.1) it's not so different. all systems from nt support call as xp: kix32.exe script.kix and win9x does not. so to make these two to work is only matter of your batch file. I don't have windows machine at my home but the environment variables (retrievable via typing set) have difference. if you can get for nt-line different result from any variable you can call the same script with just these lines in your batch file: if "%nt_any%"="some_result_for_nt_line" kix32.exe script.kix if not "%nt_any%"="some_result_for_nt_line" %0\..\kix32.exe %0\..\script.kix cheers, _________________________ ! download KiXnet

They all identify OSes in the batch file and also update Kixtart executables and DLLs. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.
