SYMPTOMS

When you log on to a Novell network server with the Microsoft client for NetWare networks, you may not be able to view the details of the login script by clicking the Details button.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs if the login script is so short that it has already finished executing by the time you click the Details button.

RESOLUTION

The login script processor in Windows 95 normally runs login scripts without displaying any output from the commands that are run to the screen. Clicking the Details button opens a window that displays the output from the commands that are run in the login script. When the login script is finished, the window closes.

To keep the window open on the screen, place a Pause command at the end of your login script. The Pause command forces the execution of the login script to halt until you press a key. It also forces the login script processor to open a window displaying the script file output.
