XP Pro and Login Script

I have searched everywhere for this. I have a domain with
2 2K AD Servers, 2000 clients logon and get mapped drives
ok, XP Clients do not, only their home folders. Our
scripts are not intense, just a few bat files, I've tried
and applied the gp's for network connections on the xp
clients and nothing. Any help is much appreciated.
 
Make sure your XP clients are using ONLY your internal
DNS servers (probably your AD servers).
 
Sorry, can't post script, but I have a feeling that it is
in our scripts the problem that is. When I create a bat
file wiht net use r: \\servername\sharename and save it in
the scripts folder, then logon with my xp client, it works
ok. Basically we have 4 bat files that call each other,
depending on variables. I guess I will have to search the
scripts for problems.
 
Currently we are using both AD DNS servers and one ISP dns
server, I changed the dns server on my pc as you suggested
but no success, thanks.
 
We are having a similar issue.
If our XP-Pro desktop manually runs the login script
batch file, it runs fine, otherwise it doesn't run.
net use O: \\roch_nt4\infosys
net use q: \\roch_snap_is\is_shared
net use L: \\roch_nt4\capps
net use N: \\roch_nt4\cityhall
net use S: \\roch_nt4\city_shared

Our 2000 Pro desktops run them just fine.
Some of our XP-pro desktops do run these scripts, so
its fairly frustrating.
If we make our users roaming user profile users, then the
drives do get mapped.

Any good ideas.
