The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1

The path to your logon script is constructed as follows:

   \\<logon server>\<netlogon>\...\<logon script name>

Where Windows NT looks for your logon script depends on where Netlogon points to. If the path to your logon script is

   c:\scripts\logon_scripts\current_script.cmd

then you may either share C:\SCRIPTS as Netlogon and give the path to the script as LOGON_SCRIPTS\CURRENT_SCRIPT.CMD, or you may share C:\SCRIPTS\LOGON_SCRIPTS as Netlogon and give the path as CURRENT_SCRIPT.CMD.
