Login scripts will only run for RAS clients if the RAS server is also a DC.
If your Win98 clients are connecting to your network through a RAS server that is NOT a PDC or BDC, then login scripts will not run.
Make sure your RAS server is a BDC, replicate the scripts from all of the DCs to the new BDC, and login scipts will run.
Of course, your clients have to be configured to login to the domain but, it sounds like you have already done this.

Im not sure, but I think answer 1 is wrong. Logon scripts for RAS will work even if the RAS server is not a DC.
On win9x machines make sure that primery logon is set to "client for microsoft networks" also make sure that in the properties of clientfor microsoft networks (in the network control panel) the check box "logon to winnt domain controller for password validation" is checked. Now when the users logon they will get a screen with user name and password plus a domain to logon to, they should click cancel (since they are not yet connected to the network it will fail if they dont click cancel). When they will logon to the RAS server (thru VPN or Dial Up Networking) the box will automaticly come up again have them enter the password and workgroup again, that way the logon script will work.
