Icons Mapped to NetWare Drives Appear/Disappear from Start Menu

ID: Q186475


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0, Terminal Server Edition


SYMPTOMS

If you use NetWare logon scripts, you may find that icons mapped to NetWare drives will appear and disappear from the Start Menu.


CAUSE

The user desktop may appear before the NetWare logon script is completed.


RESOLUTION

One workaround is to create a System Policy that tells the system to run the complete logon script before continuing to bring up the user desktop. In System Policy Editor, modify Default Computer (or create specific computer policies if you do not want this to be a global change) under Windows NT System/Logon. Check the box "Run Logon Scripts Synchronously." This may resolve the problem.
