SYMPTOMS
========

Nwscript.exe parses the NetWare login script. The CX command changes the context
and can be used as follows: "cx ..". This should move the user's context one
level up within the NDS hierarchy. Instead, you receive the following error
message:

  The context you want to change to does not exist.

CAUSE
=====

Nwscript.exe does not parse the command correctly.

RESOLUTION
==========

In login scripts, use absolute paths (for example, "cx .somecontainer").

Additional query words: prodnt winnt
