Windows 2003 logon script under profile tab

hello, I would like to make a logon script for a user under Windows Server 2003. I made a folder named "scripts" under the C drive(C:\scripts) and shared it out with a name Netlogon. With "net share" command I can see the C:\scripts shared out as Netlogon. However, my logon script is not found when the user logs in(he has all the necessary rights to access Netlogon folder). I think I have entered wrong information under "Profile path" and "Logon script" fields under the Profile tab. Under "Logon script" field I entered the name of my bat file ant under the "Profile path" I entered \\127.0.0.1\Netlogon Did I do something wrong? Or what should be on these gaps?

I believe you simply put the name of the login script without any path and it will default to the PDC's NETLOGON share. I have it set up to call "login.bat" when my users log in and the script is found automatically.

Use the full UNC path in the logon script blank. example: \\servername\sharename\filename Profile path is for roaming profiles not for scripts and should be left blank in this scenario. Paul
