Actually I misspoke before I just created our Sysvol and Netlogon shares and they both are mirror images of one another and contain the same information.
I'm not using GP's to assign logon scripts but they are assigned via the Profile -> logon script on the users accot tab..
I'm still having a hard time understanding J.P's? IN WIndows 2008 the only documents and settings folder is a shorcut to USERS , could this be considers a J.P?

Did you created the SYSVOL and NETLOGON share manually??
Profile -> logon script on the users accot tab..
This points to the NETLOGON share (Scripts folder), so if this field says i.e. "logon.bat" this script should be located in the NETLOGON share.
In Win2008, C:\Documents and Settings is a JP that points to C:\Users

SYSVOL contains login scripts, group policy settings, and much more info about AD.
NETLOGON is just a copy of anything you have in the folder SYSVOL\domain.com\scripts
