Regarding the system login script problem!!!

I too had the same problem, it causes mapping to change, and spoolings
of printers & queues to stuff up. The problkem is that there is no
'exit' command at the end of the script. You might then think that all
you have to do is put an exit in the last line, BUT if you do this,
then any login scripts that exist fo users won't get executed. Therefore
you have to go through everybodies mail directory and add a file 
named 'login' that contains tyhe line 'exit'. Simple huh! One day I'll
get around to writing a TP program to do it for me. 

BTW Printer definition files also reside there, if, lilke me you have 
any printer problems.

Lastly... Has anybody seen a program that will charge users for printing
that they do. I want to charge for laser printing, at the moment the
students are getting it for free, and it's costing the department a lot
of money.
