Login Script for win2k Server

by lmarkovski . Updated 24 years, 5 months ago

Scenario:
1.Win2k server Configured as WorkGroup Server
2.Win95,Win 98 Clients pc need to log into server and map network Drives g: h:
3.Where do I put the script?

What I have tried.
1.because not a domain controller and has no sysvol. i cantput script in there.
2.I created a variable in environment and pointed it to login.bat file. In users i created the profile to point to the batch file so it can excecute and run login script.(I couldnt get this to work when Clients logged in.
3.Mywork around was to create login bat with net use g: \\servername\common\dir
and place it in all pc’s startup group which works.

4.I know this is a dirty way of doing it.But i have no options as to promote server to DC I need to run though AD wizard and I cant install AD at this point of time because of the mixed environment and different countries involved in my organisation have used same server names and ip addresses ?

1.Is there any cleaner way of doing it?
2.Can I promote a win2k server without installing AD?

Thankyou in advance (Sorry if i babbled)
