Opening two URL's in separate windows from logon script

[Robert Leithe]

Hi,

I have two links my users are supposed to have opened for
them via the logon script.

If I simply call the URL's like this:
LOGON SCRIPT SAMPLE 1
link1.url
link2.url

The second link replaces the first one in the same browser
window.

If I try this:
LOGON SCRIPT SAMPLE 2:
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
http://address1
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
http://address2

The first link opens, and the logon scripts pauses until
this window is closed and then continues with the next
link.

Any ideas?

Sincerely
Robert Leithe

Which OS? If NTx change your *command file* to use the start command.

Alternatively just uncheck the Advanced option
Reuse windows for launching shortcuts

That option seems to have greater applicability in IE6sp1 (at least in XPsp1)
than it once had. Also it seems to be one of the ones which requires
restart to take effect; so if you are setting it using the IE Tools menu
make sure that you close all IE windows and verify that iexplore.exe
is no longer an active process before testing your change.


Good luck
