Login script problem

[Sebastien]

I'm trying to create a login script that will allow me to determine the group of a user and map its personal drives accorgingly. I have tried almost every script available on the net and nothing works. The major problem occurs when I try to determine the domain of the user under Win98. If I use the following code, I get the right user name, but the domain name is left blank.

'****** Now give them their initial values..... ******
Set nUser = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Network")
Domain = nUser.UserDomain
UserName = nUser.UserName

I desperately need a solution to be able to map the right network drives, could somebody help me please?

Thanks!

There is a bug in 95/95 that makes them return a blank when
you ask for the domain using adsi. There is a work around
that means you have to take that info from the registry.
The MS online KB has the exact details, sorry I dont have
the reference to hand. Try looking for "logon script 95"

You can get the domain from the following registry key on a Win98 machine. Since we are on the topic, anyone know where to get the Windows version from the registry?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesM SNP32NetworkProvider]
"AuthenticatingAgent"="Tampa_c"
