Calling a batch file from a logon script

[TimK01]

Basicly I can call a batch file or VB script from another batch file in my local machine, in a network drive, but not in Netlogon.

Each user has a logon script in netlogon to do user specific stuff but instead of always updating all logon scripts I wanted to add a call to a general Batch file or vbscript from every logon script to hold the code general to everyone.

I can make it work on network drives and locally but put it into netlogon and it wont go. The call returns "Bad Command or file name".

I Have tried quallifying the call with exact path names, both scripts are in the same Folder.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thx

Tim

If you are trying to call another batch file with the call command from a login script you will need to call it from a network share, as the file won't exist on each pc.

Try "call \\computer\share\batchfile.bat" in the login script and see if that works.

Let me know how that works out for you.
