You can do this:
- Create a share called "Netlogon" on your server.
- Place a file called "netlogon.bat" into this share.
- Make its two first lines like so:
Line1: @echo off
Line2: xcopy /d /y \\YourServer\netlogon\netlogon.bat
"%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" > nul
- Prime the pump on each PC by copying this file manually into
its destination.
You can now modify the script centrally; it will automatically be
copied to each workstation as people log on.
You should also ask yourself why you operate a big network
in a Workgroup environment. By not operating in a domain
environment, you're causing yourself a lot of extra work, and
you deprive your users of the advantages of centralised
account administrataion (centralised password control, roaming
etc. etc.)
