8Exit the NetWare User Tools.

9Load NetWare Administrator by choosing the “NWADMIN” icon from the NetWare group.

The “NetWare Administrator” main screen appears.

10From the browser, select the object whose container profile you want to edit.

To modify the login script for a container, select the “Organizational Unit” icon.

To modify the login script for a particular User object, select the “User” icon. A login script can be a property of a container, Profile, or User object.

You might have to browse through the Directory tree to get to the object you want. For information about moving around in the browser and selecting objects, choose “Help” from the menu bar at the top of the “NetWare Administrator” screen.

11From the NetWare Administrator menu bar, choose “Object.”

12Choose “Details.”

13Choose the “Login Script” page button.

14In the login script, map a drive to the network file that you want copied to the client workstations.

For example, if you want to copy the NE2000.COM file from the \DRIVERS directory to drive J: on the workstations, add a drive mapping similar to the following:

MAP J:=VOL2:DRIVERS\

15Insert the WSUPDATE command after the drive mapping in the login script by typing

#WSUPDATE J: filename

For example, if you mapped drive J: as shown in Step 15, add the following command after the drive mapping:

#WSUPDATE J: NE2000.COM

This command searches all local drives of the client workstations and replaces the NE2000.COM file with its newer version on drive J:.
