I would start with a simple command, then build it up until the script
fails, e.g. like so:
Step 1: strRun="c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c echo %time% >> c:\test.txt"
Step 2: strRun="c:\uptime.exe /s /p:30 >> c:\test.txt"
(You need to copy uptime.exe to c:\)
Step 3: strRun="%logonserver%\NETLOGON\\cmd.exe /c echo %time% >>
c:\test.txt"
(you need to copy cmd.exe to your netlogon share)
Step 4: strRun="%logonserver%\NETLOGON\uptime /s /p:30"
In each case you must replace the line
Set objScriptExec = objShell.Exec(strRun)
with
objShell.run strRun , 1, true
in order for the tests to work. By making a note of the step that fails you
can probably resolve the issue.
