Windows 95 Logon Script Is Not Processed

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS
A Windows 95 workstation logging on to a Microsoft Windows NT domain controller may not process the centralized logon script batch file.

CAUSE
This problem can occur if multiple Windows 95 workstations try to run a logon script file (for example, the Winlogon.bat file) located on a single Windows NT domain controller at the same time. The first time a Windows 95 workstation access the logon script file, it does so in Read/Share/Exclusive mode. All subsequent accesses to the file are done in Read/Share/Deny None mode.

The exclusive requests fail when another workstation has the file open in Read/Share/Deny None mode.

RESOLUTION
This issue is resolved by the following updated file for Windows 95, and later versions of this file:

  MSNET32.DLL  version 4.00.951  dated 4/18/96  60,416 bytes

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows 95. An update to address this problem is now available, but is not fully regression tested and should be applied only to computers experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft does not recommend implementing this update at this time. Contact Microsoft Technical Support for additional information about the availability of this update.

This issue is resolved in Microsoft Windows 98.
