Longon Script not working

Question

Hello Forum,

I am trying to use a logon script but no matter what I do it doesn't work.

I tried mimicking what the instructor does, I even watched several other tutorials on YouTube but again none of the methods I watched work for me.

I do not know what the reason might be, but I am doing the following:

I create a script.bat in SYSVOL/sysvol/mydomain/scripts/

net use Y: \myDC\SharedFolder
net use G: \myDC\TestFolder

I also tried to run the script inside the DC to see if it would map the folders, but it doesn't, btw, the first time I tried to run the script it crashed my server for some reason...

Could something be preventing this script from executing?

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated!

CHEERS!

Use gpresult to verify that the group policy has been applied.

Capture stdout and stderr to verify that your script is be called and to see what messages it produces.

net use Y: \\myDC\SharedFolder   1>>C:\Windows\Temp\LogonScript.log 2>&1  
net use G: \\myDC\TestFolder     1>>C:\Windows\Temp\LogonScript.log 2>&1
