Group Policy Batch file help?

Is it possible to have a batch file deployed as a startup script in a
Computer based GPO?

I have the need for my users to run a batch file that does an xcopy
command and overwrites an existing local directory.

Most of the users do not have the kind of access to perform this task,
so I would need to have an account with elevated rights perform it for
them. I need to have it automated and touching each desk is not not an
option.

I have 2K3 DC's and XP SP2 clients.

Thanks to anyone who can help!

Hi

Place the batch file under Netlogon Share
(%Systemroot%\Sysvol\Domain\Scripts) you can use a runas command to execute
whatever you want to.

Ok, but wouldnt that make an admin password viewable in plain text if I
use runas?

I wasn't sure, but that was the impression I got from some documentation
