Question:

Does you have some sample NT login scripts? Being new to WinBatch, I need to get a head start on learning how to use the network functions. Thanks!

Answer:

I have cut and pasted some pieces of a login script that I did on a consulting project that gathers client information and writes to a central location. This isn't complete (It's rather large). It should give you plenty of ideas though. Here are some pointers:

You will soon find that if your DLL's aren't located on your clients PC, you will need to be creative in how you design your scripts to run quickly.
If the opportunity presents itself, distribute your DLL's to client system directory.
A small network compiled .exe can be called from existing login scripts.
If you have 95 clients you will need to path to your .exe so the connection doesn't get dropped while processing.

If osys == 4 
   os = "NT"
   user=RegQueryValue(@REGMACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\[DefaultUserName]")
