| Damon,
|
| Thanks for answering me. I'm glad to know my setup is correct. I played
| around with removing the scripts and putting them back. No script file
means
| that nothing launches. Put the login script back and again I get two
| instances. The command that launches twice is a link to an executable that
| audits the workstation.
|
| I never heard of gpresult. What a great tool! The results of gpresult
showed
| why. The GPO is linked to the domain and site both so runs twice. I didn't
| realize that if the same GPO was linked to both domain and site that it
| would run scripts twice. I fixed the situation.
|
| Thanks again for your help Damon,
|
| Steve
