ID: Q222809

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server
Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server

SYMPTOMS

The INCLUDE command is not executed in a NetWare login script when you log on to a Windows 2000-based computer on which Gateway Services for NetWare (GSNW) or Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) is installed.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because GSNW and CSNW does not provide support for the INCLUDE command.

RESOLUTION

To work around this behavior, install the Novell Client for Windows 2000. For more information about the Novell Client for Windows 2000, contact Novell.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

The INCLUDE command is utilized in NetWare login scripts to call other text files and execute them as if they are login scripts. When the text file called by the INCLUDE command is finished executing, the original login script continues from the point of the INCLUDE command.
