REM Enhanced version by Des Dougan ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), March 2001.
REM
REM This enhanced "netlogon.bat" script uses "winset" (an MS
REM utility which is on the Win95 CD (not sure about 98 or ME). It
REM loads environment variables extracted by "putinenv".
REM "putinenv" is a freeware utility used to read samba system variables.
REM Note: it does not pull all the variables noted in its online help
REM presumably because samba does not support all the MS LAN Manager
REM variables this was written to extract.
REM
REM Note also that this apparently does not work on NT or Win 2000.
REM However, I haven't been able to test either of these.
REM
REM Set the temporarily-mapped directory containing the scripts.
Z:\

REM Define the name of the server this batch file runs from as both a
REM local ("set") and global ("winset") environment variable. Server
REM name is in "\\servername" format.
