Desktop Background Refresh

[Guest]

I have a unique situation. My users (teachers) feel it takes too long for the
students to log off and the next student to log on. So, because we're a
Novell shop, I just put a shortcut to the Novell login on their desktops.
Works great.
Now the teachers want the student's picture set as the desktop background.
I've got that delivered through group policies and it works, but only for the
first kid to log on in the morning. The next kid to log on (through Novell
remember) does not get the desktop background refreshed.
I'd like to either use a script that would cause the background to refresh
on login, or deliver an app through Zenworks that would run and cause the
background to refresh. I don't know what .exe in XP Pro would cause a
refresh, if any.

Any help? (Other than combative responses because we use Novell for our
network servers please)

Thanks in advance.

Moron - ask in a novell group about their products. Are you totally stupid.

You must've been a marine. Novell has nothing to do with the desktop of
Windows XP Pro. refreshing. Moron.

F*ckwit, you can ask about a Novell OS in a windows group and get no answers. Or you can ask in a novell group and get answers. I am probably one of the few here to have even used Zenworks - there was nothing to do with windows in it. But most of my Novell experience is on very old Novell servers (mostly Dos clients) as a programmer.

I've asked for assistance in the Zenworks forum, but since this is a Windoze
problem and not a Novell problem, I came here.
What are you a marine in a transmission factory?

Dump zenworks, join a windows domain. We can then answer your question. How is a zenworks policy (and my only experience with Zenworks is running ZW policies manually) got anything to do with windows.

Seeing how I work in a school system, and most school systems can't afford to
run all MS servers, I don't have much choice.
The Zen policies have nothing to do with my question, other than they tell
the MS OS to show a certain picture as the desktop background. I need to know
what app in XP causes the desktop to refresh. I know it can be done in XP
manually because I've done it. All I have to do is login as a new user, open
the desktop properties and then click OK and the picture refreshes.
How's the transmission business?
