Yes you must place the logon script in the NETLOGON share on all Domain Controllers which is by default \WinNt\system32\repl\import\scripts.

No you don't have to set your primery server to the PDC, you can right the script that the clients are redirected to the Primary Server using \\servername\sharename. or a URL

You need both the login script (Norton supplies one called vplogon.bat that works for Winnt and both 16 and 32 bit Windows 3.1/9x workstations) and another Norton program file called nbpshpop.exe. Both files can be found on your primary server in the Program Files\NAV\logon folder. Place these in your Netlogon folder (\winnt\system32\repl\import\scripts) and then set up your users to run the logon script. If you refer to your Norton System Admin manual, there is a section in there on how to set up an NT server to install NAV CE from a login script. The NAV primary server does not have to be the PDC of your domain. However, of course, you need to be sure that the logon script and nbpshpop.exe files are in the Netlogon folder of your PDC and any BDC's on your network. Hope this helps!
