Not to put too fine a point on the matter (I'm out of ideas, now, anyway), but did you notice Ed's suggestion of the lower case u: %u? Samba distinguishes between %U and %u. His solution also blows my thought about the "extra" .bat suffix out of the water.

I have the following config that works well for me:

logon script = %u.bat

and under /shared/netlogon I have [user].bat for each user as we are a small operation...

I'm shotgunning here, since I'm not much more experienced than you, but I think setting login script to netlogon/%U.bat makes Geraldine, for instance, run the script geraldine.bat.bat. Try using netlogon/%U (although I'm not sure this construction works).

I've tried chmod 755, changing the {netlogon} in smb.conf:

[netlogon]
        comment = Network Logon Service
        path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
        login scipt = netlogon/%U.bat
        write list = root
        admin users = root
        guest ok = Yes
        browseable = No

doesn't work for some reason.

You haven't placed your scripts in the .../netlogon directory; you've placed them, it seems from your ls listing, in your .../netlogon/scripts directory. You need to correct your [netlogon] path.

To answer craig. I've corrected the dos syntax in the login scripts but they don't seem to be running.
