wsh(Windows Scripting Host), Running VBS Script Via Logon Batch File

Running VBS Script Via Logon Batch File

Author	Message
Robi #1 / 5	Running VBS Script Via Logon Batch File I am attempting to run a VBS script that maps drives based on Windows 2000 (Mixed Mode) Security Groups from Windows 95 systems. I wrote a KiXtart script that works nicely for this, but the company I am working with wants to do WSH scripting for this function, thus the VB Script. The VB Script works fine from the Command line, but not from the logon batch file (the batch file hangs). The contents of the logon batch file are: %0\..\cscript.exe %0\..\script.vbs Use of the %0\..\ to reference the NETLOGON share of the DC/BDC (Mixed Mode) authenticating the User works fine using KiXtart (%0\..\kix32.exe %0\..\kixscript.kix), but hangs using cscript. Anyone have any insight on this? Thanks in advance! Robert Baker Portland, OR

Walter Zacker #2 / 5	Running VBS Script Via Logon Batch File %0\.. is a reference to the directory that the batch file resides in, and it's fairly unlikely that cscript.exe will be in this directory. Try using cscript.exe %0\..\script.vbs : I am attempting to run a VBS script that maps drives based on Windows 2000 : (Mixed Mode) Security Groups from Windows 95 systems.

Robi #4 / 5	Running VBS Script Via Logon Batch File I have tried that (cscript.exe %0\..\script.vbs), unfortunately cscript.exe doesn't find the VBS script. If I specify the full UNC path (\\servername\NETLOGON\script.vbs), the process hangs.

Ian Morris #5 / 5	Running VBS Script Via Logon Batch File Wscript seems to work better on 95 for logon scripts (rather than cscript). At least that's what I found 4 years ago, it's been a LONG time since we used 95.
