Sysvol uses junction points to manage a single instance store. Junction points 
are also referred to as reparse points (directory junctions and volume mount 
points).

If you dir  a drive mapped to \\shortname\netogon you can see this clearly in a 
command prompt represented as <Junction> ad.domain.name

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=324175 explains it fairly well.

In my case, it looks like 

\\DOMAIN-NAME\SysVol\DOMAIN-NAME\scripts 

That's the link, as I see it, anyway, in "My Network Places". 
"\SYSVOL\sysvol\example.com\SCRIPTS" doesn't resolve to anything (yes, I 
replaced example.com ;-)) I haven't had a chance to try using that link in my 
login script yet. 

I did find an old script in that folder that references 

%0\..\scriptname 

SO if I put my utility (IfMember.EXE) in that folder above, and then in the 
login script reference it as "%0\..\IfMember domain-name\groupname", it should 
theoretically do what I want it to do .... 

I'll give it a try, once I finish fixing everything that just decided to break 
....
