RE: [FW1] Secure Domain Logon w/ SP2 win98 LMHOSTS entry



Gregor, thanks for the info on the LMdata section.  My winnt and win9x
clients are correctly receiving the information which should enable browsing
but it still does not work.  The LMHosts file is correct, I have my wins
servers IP address in the dial up properties, and I can map drives etc...
but can't browse the network.  My dnsinfo.C file is also working for dns
resolution and mappings of my domains, etc...

Are any of you using NT and dialing out to an ISP (my case MSN).  I am
confused on how to get SDL working on NT when I am supplying credentials for
MSN when I dial out.  I guess my thick skull needs a step by step on how to
log into a winnt machine locally, dial the ISP, and get SSO and SDL to fire
up on SecuRemote

I want to get network neighborhood browsable because my users aren't very
technical and mapping a drive is extremely hard for them to do for some
reason...

thanks 

PDB

Gregor,
      Logon script now executes since adding :netbios_nat (true) but drive 
mappings generate an network path not found (system 53) error. A net time 
entry in the logon script works it references the
%logonserver% parameter but net use t: \\server\share does not work. Maybe 
\\server.domain.com\share is required?? After logon script executes and the 
desktop comes up, net use t: \\server\share works with no problems, it just 
does not work in the logon script. I tried adding an entry for "server" in 
my dnsinfo.C, it replicated to the LMHosts file but the logon script still 
did not work. Both NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 did the same thing. Client is 
version 4165 (SP2) VPN-1 fw-1 is SP1.

      Also, in your dnsinfo.C file below you sometime use :domain parameter 
and some time do not - is this for PDCs and BDCs only?

      Thanks

Bob
