I've just created a BDC to backup my exisiting NT4 PDC (as it keeps dieing on its arse)
I noticed it copied the account info over, but as i'm using logon scripts and wins it doesnt look like these have come over to the bdc. Am I just beign thick, or will I have to do it manually??
 
The scripts should be replicated to

\winnt\system32\repl\import\scripts

And clients should get these automatically. Has the path been changed?
 
not that i know of ....but as its an inherited system, i'll check

Cheers.

Any idea about the wins stuff tho....i dont appear to have wins manager installed on the bdc.
 
If the PDC keeps dieing then start transfering some of the roles to the BDC make that the Primary WiNS server, dhcp etc.

Can't remember where to check for the wins database, but jjust iensure it is installed properly on the new bdc.
