I hope I can get some help here. I'm running W2K Svr, with 50 W2k Pro clients.

I have a logon script with Kix32 (v3.63) which is running on the NETLOGON folder and specified on each user account under the "Profile" tab like this "Logon Script: kix32 \\fla-server-1\netlogon\script\scriptname.kix".

I have placed the path for the location under Group Policy for the DC under "Scripts(Logon/Logoff)>Logon>Script Name: \\fla-server-1\NETLOGON\script\scriptname.kix and Script Parameters is empty.

The script reads like this:

=======================================
CLS

;Setup User's Personal Drive
if exist ("\\fla-server-1\users\" + @userid)
USE H: "\\fla-server-1\users\%username%"
USE S: "\\fla-server-1\shared"
USE P: "\\fla-server-1\apps"
endif

;Group related Drive Mappings
if ingroup("management")
USE x: "\\fla-server-1\executive"
endif
if ingroup("Finance")
USE F: "\\fla-server-1\accounting"
endif
if ingroup("Information Technology")
USE I: "\\fla-server-1\IT"
endif
if ingroup("Human Resources")
USE L: "\\fla-server-1\HR"
endif

;Set Network Time
SETTIME "\\fla-server-1"

;Delete Workstations temp files
RUN "del %temp%"

exit

=========================================

So far, the script works...BUT every user who logs in, with the exception of the Domain Admins, get a "kix32" folder at the begining...which everyone has to actually close manually.

I would also like to add a sting to add all the printers of the within the network when a new user log in.

Can someone help me out with this request?

Thanks a million!

We had some remarks:

• when the %temp% isn't defined it is possible that the wrong
  files will be deleted. First check: does mine %temp% variable exist.
  Secondly check: do the directory exist.
  
• with a del you are only deleting files in specified
  directory. Subdirectories and files in subdirectories will not
  be deleted.
  A better suggestion is: use deltree command, which can
  handle also open files. Other commands will stop processing
  your command.

  
  We suggest to modify it to:
  

  code:

  ---

  
    IF (len("%temp%") <> 0)
      IF (Exist("%temp%\nul") = 1)
        run '%comspec% /c echo Y|del %temp%'
      ENDIF
    ENDIF
  

  ---

  a better suggestion is:
  

  code:

  ---

  
    IF (len("%temp%") <> 0)
      IF (Exist("%temp%\nul") = 1)
        run '%comspec% /c deltree /y %temp%\.'
      ENDIF
    ENDIF
  

  ---

  a last suggestion is:
  

  code:

  ---

  
    IF (Exist("c:\winnt\temp\nul") = 1)
      run '%comspec% /c deltree /y c:\winnt\temp\.'
    ENDIF
    IF (Exist("c:\windows\temp\nul") = 1)
      run '%comspec% /c deltree /y c:\windows\temp\.'
    ENDIF
    IF (Exist("c:\temp\nul") = 1)
      run '%comspec% /c deltree /y c:\temp\.'
    ENDIF
  

  ---

  
  Only files and subdirectories in specified directories will be deleted.
  The names aren't influenced by other settings and you know that the
  specified directories can do any harm by deletion.
  Greetings.
