Is it possible to use the %logonserver% variable when deploying software with
group policy? I want to put the package in the NETLOGON folder so that users
in remote sites can install from the local DC and not have to pull it over
the WAN.

Thanks,

Rich
 
Hi Rich,

I think the proper approach is to separate your users and computers in
remote site in a separate OU and create a different GPO for them so as to
not using %logonserver% in deployment.

If sites and services were configured correctly, could he use a DFS, which
would force the user to use the 'closest' server, provided his DFS included
those servers, in both locations?
