Subject: RE: passwd-group post install scripts
Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2002 09:47:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BADF3C947A1BD54FBA75C70C241B0B9E762FC9@ex02.idirect.net> (raw)

Also, you might want to group the Winnt/Win2k/xp tests
at the top of the batch file, and then throw away the
windows 95/98/ME tests, and let the batch file simply
fall through to that code if the Winnt/Win2k/xp tests
fail.
