OS: Netware 5.0
WKS: Win95,NT,2000.

The problem is that I am running this login script at the container level.

_____________________________________________

No_default
write "This is the testcontainer login script"
write "Good %GREETING_TIME, %FULL_NAME"
write "Welcome to the Company Network"

rem *** Group Drive Maps ***

MAP F:= TEST\SYS:\Public
MAP L:=TEST\CAG:MAP R:=TEST\OPS:
rem *** Search Drive Maps ***
MAP INS S1:=TEST\SYS:\PUBLIC
MAP INS S2:=TEST\SYS:\UTIL

Exit___________________________________________

Now after this script is executed on my windows NT and Windows 2000 wks machines it seems to be okay and will map exactly everything as in the login script but the actual problem is with windows 95 wks it seems to map the entire sys volume instead of sys:\Public and SYS:\UTIL. Don't know why it would do that.

Its fine on NT and 2000 but creates lot of problems with 95 wks.

Any help and advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

Did you try to change your two last map statement:

MAP S16:= ...
MAP S15:= ... ?

It works well in my system - Novell 4.11 & WKS Windows 95/98.

rem *** Group Drive Maps ***

MAP ROOT F:=TEST\SYS:\Public
MAP ROOT L:=TEST\CAG:
MAP ROOT R:=TEST\OPS:
rem *** Search Drive Maps ***
MAP INS S1:=TEST\SYS:\PUBLIC
MAP INS S2:=TEST\SYS:\UTIL

Exit

On Drives L & R, the "root" does nothing since you are mapping to the root of the volume. But when you specify a path including subdirectories, unless the path is MAP ROOTed, you can browse up to the root of the directory.

MAP ROOT will force the PC to see the full path (including subdirectories) as the root.
