CMD Net Logon Help Please


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I have a computer running windows xp in a domain running windows server 2003.

Each time i start up the computer, it runs comand prompt for what i believe to be a net logon script? :s.

It then requires the administrators password to enable access to a mapped network drive,

i have since given permission to the user to access the drive without needing to type the password in the command prompt each time at start up.

I just need to stop cmd from popping up asking for a password each time the user logs on.

i have looked in start up and msconfig for it but cannot see it.

Can anyone please help.

Much appreciated,

Thanks

Josh

yes \\dnsserver\netlogon has a few .bat files and in the active directory on the dns server,

i have looked at everyones user properties and they all run office.bat script but for some reason, this one user is asked to enter the administrator password each time when he logs on in command prompt.

every one elses user name does not show the command prompt :s

please help

Cheers,

Josh

This comes down to a rights/permission issue.

You will have to use the tools provided in windows to verify permissions and/or reset permissions. Remember to verify share level and file level permissions.

Again I can look at it if you'd like.

Try the same user on a diff comp, does it follow? If it does then it most certainly a user rights issue.

Hi! so the screenshot is the cmd.exe, can first close this cmd dialog box,

then right click "My Computer" >>> left click "Map Network Drive..." >>> in Drive: TextBox please choose "P:" >>> in Folder: TextBox please input "\\NAS\Public" >>> then tick "Reconnect at logon"

option >>> left click "Finish" button >>> here Windows will ask user to input a vaild username and a vaild password, if the user login account (because now your computer has already login, so

Windows recognise the logined user name and password as a default user account to access this network drive) has permission to access the network drive "\\NAS\Public", after you click ""Finish"

button, you can see network drive icon inside "My Computer", if the user login account (because now your computer has already login, so Windows recognise the logined user name and password as

a default user account to access this network drive) has no permission to access the network drive "\\NAS\Public", please click "different user name" then input another a vaild username and a vaild

password to access.

    • Exactly. Use it is fine, but copyright is another story...
    • Not really, I am pretty hot at the moment and tomorrow I will be even hotter as the U.K are some hot days. Not looking forward to work. I just don't want to connect my computer to MS servers, I have no need to, the same with my Mac not being connected to Apple Servers. I have no need for MS or Apple accounts.
    • Really? Do you want it spelled out? Ok: It was a funsies way to say that we can confidently asume that their update servers were shut down years ago already, and no updates have been developed or delivered to any LG phone in years, since, to begin, LG wasn't too well known for their software support.
    • Good afternoon, I have a customer who purchased a Dell laptop last year. One of the latest Inspirons. they are older so it can be a bit hard to see things on the screen. They are using Windows 11 Home 23H2, I have not upgraded them yet to 24H2. What I did was changed the scaling to 150% and that automatically made all the icons on desktop bigger and using in Chrome webpage elements are bigger etc. The thing is I overlooked the Taskbar and the icons most notably hidden within the arrow pointing up. I though by changing to 150% the scaling even the taskbar would get bigger. Again I don't know how I missed seeing that. Is this something that can be fixed? One other thing is I notice in File Explorer things are also small and not larger after the change. Can this be fixed as well?   Thank You.
    • Apple still has two unannounced features for iOS 26 by Hamid Ganji Apple held its WWDC25 event this month to unveil a slew of AI features and its new design for operating systems, known as Liquid Glass. While iOS 26 currently has no shortage of features, the iPhone maker might still have some features under wraps that didn’t make a debut at this month’s WWDC. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes in his weekly Power On newsletter that Apple didn’t announce two iOS 26 features at the WWDC event. The first feature is a live translation of conversations via AirPods, and the latter is the ability to sync your wireless network login information across devices at a hotel or gym. Even though these features were already tipped to arrive in iOS 26, Apple held them from the event, presumably because they’re still not ready to ship. Apple appears to have learned from its experience with Apple Intelligence and aims to break the habit of unveiling new features before they are ready for release. The Live Translation on iOS 26 is currently integrated with popular apps like Messages, FaceTime, and Phone to help users break language barriers and communicate in different languages. The feature is now under development for AirPods, allowing users to hear real-time speech translations. Moreover, the WiFi syncing feature allows you to sync your sign-in information across your entire Apple ecosystem, enabling you to connect to a public WiFi network with ease. This would eliminate the need to sign into a WiFi network separately on each device. While these features haven’t arrived in iOS 26 yet, they’re more likely to be released later this year, in October or December.
