revised login.bat not taking effect

Guest

We have a Windows 2000 server, XP clients.

I just revised the login.bat file to add a new network drive. The new drive
is not appearing either when users log off and then back on, or on reboot.

The pointer to the login.bat file is coming from AD user, profile tab, login
script field.

Other drives called for by the login.bat file appear, only missing one is
the new drive. All users all rights to the new share.

Any help appreciated.

what happens if you manually run the script from a client machine? Does it
give any messages / indications of errors?

I ran it from a client. It was not completeing. The new share name has
spaces in it and I remembered reading somewhere that you have to use quotes
on the path name if that is the case. So I put quotes around the path name
and now it works.

Thanks for the suggestion.
