Ok I read through the document and am now trying the AdvancedLogon.bat calling a very simple kixtart script. I can verifiy that the BAT portion runs fine, but when it gets to the kix32 line it hangs

my Advancedlogon is almost identical to the one given and here amd my script is one line

It hangs on this line in advanced logon

%windir%\system\kix32.exe %0\..\logon1.kix

logon1.kix is

USE X: "\\servername\kixtart"

like I said it works fine in NT
