Customizing the User Environment

INCLUDE nesting is limited only by available memory. This means that one

subscript ﬁle can include another subscript ﬁle, which can include yet

another subscript ﬁle, and so on.

If the subscript is a text ﬁle, users must have at least File Scan and Read

rights to the directory containing the subscript.

If you are using another object’s login script as a subscript, users must have

the Browse right to the object whose script you are including and the Read

right to the object’s Login Script property.

Examples

• To execute a text file called SCRIPT.NEW (located in the VOL1: volume) as a

subscript, add the following line to your main login script:

INCLUDE VOL1:ADMIN\USERS\SCRIPT.NEW

• Suppose you are creating a container login script for all users under the

Organizational Unit object SALES_LA. You recently created a container login

script for users under the Organizational Unit object SALES_PV.

Now you’ve decided that the login scripts for the two different groups of users

are very similar. In fact, you decide that the SALES_LA users could use the

same login script as the SALES_PV users, but with a few more drive mappings.

In the SALES_LA login script, you could add the additional drive mappings,

and then use the INCLUDE command to execute the entire SALES_PV login

script as a part of the SALES_LA login script, as follows:

• Create an alias for the SALES_PV Organizational Unit in the SALES_LA

Organizational Unit.

• Add this line to the SALES_LA Organizational Unit’s login script.

INCLUDE .SALES_PV_ALIAS.SALES.ACME_US

Figure 5-2 illustrates how the INCLUDE command executes the SALES_PV
