Login Script problem

[Shawn Fletcher]

I have a basic drive mapping login script on a Windows 2000 Advanced
server, which is servicing 40 new Dell XP workstations. About 80% of
the workstations execute the login script fine, but the remaining
workstations do not. I'm not sure what would cause this. Please give
me any suggestions. All of the users are setup up the same way.

Thanks.

1. If the user is being authenticated by cached credentials because the
machine cannot connect to the DC. Incorrect DNS server? Network issues?
Open a command prompt and enter:
if {%logonserver%}=={\\%computername%} (echo. & echo There's an issue.)
else (echo. & echo I should check into something else.)
(Watch for line wrap. That's all one line.)

2. If you have multiple DCs, do the logon scripts exist on all of them?
