NetWare Login Script (NWSCRIPT) Parses "cx.." Incorrectly

 Last reviewed: March 27, 1997
Article ID: Q155567
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Nwscript.exe parses the NetWare login script. The CX command changes the context and can be used as follows: "cx ..". This should move the user's context one level up within the NDS hierarchy. Instead, you receive the following error message: 

   The context you want to change to does not exist.

CAUSE

Nwscript.exe does not parse the command correctly.

RESOLUTION

In login scripts, use absolute paths (for example, "cx .somecontainer").
