workstation not running login script

I have been looking at the running of the login scripts and can not see why they are not running when I log in through my normal desktop. It is as if there is no logon server available, but if you do a SET, you see the logon server. I thought that the problem could be this server and did an nltest reset so that the logon server is a different domain controller, but still the same problem.

It is not as if there is an error with the script and I get an error message appearing. I even used a different login script to see if it is a problem with the original script.

I can log into citrix and it runs the login script without a problem

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

IS there more than one domain controller? If so try putting the script on the other one(s).
