A NetWare user that is logging onto a NetWare 4.x server using bindery emulation and does not have the security equivalence of administrator, may not have rights to the SMSLOGON directory on the NetWare Client Access Point.
By default, the NetWare Everyone group has access to the SMSLOGON directory. The Everyone group is not created by default in bindery context on a NetWare 4.x server.
In order for users to successfully run the Smsls.scr from the logon script, the Everyone group must be created in the bindery context (the user is a member of the Everyone group automatically if the Everyone group exists).
SUMMARY
If after logging onto the server you attempt to view the available folders on the NetWare server you will find that SMSLOGON is not one of them. This folder is only available if you have administrator security equivalence.
This is a known issue.
MORE INFORMATION
Please refer to the Novell NetWare documentation for information on how to create user groups.
