Startup Scripts

[Samuel]

What is the path that you entered? Was it c:\* or
\\servername\

 

[Sarah G.]

I put \\servername\sharefolder\exe file name /u /q under computer
configuration, windows settings.

All of my scripts are vb scripts. What are yours? It may
not work with the arguments, have you tested the script on
a localmachine to see if it would work?

Hi Sarah,

As suggested by Samuel, check to see if the user (after logon) can manually
access \\servername\sharefolder\exe and run the script.

- if not
------> check permissions on share & ntfs

- if user can run it manually
-------> does the script run when admin logs onto client?
-------------- if yes
----------------> check permissions on policy (is it applying to
"authenticated users"?)

Hi Sabin and Samuel,

Thank you for your reply.
I did try on localmachine, it works find with switches, and same path, just
not work in gpo. In addition I've checked the permission of gpo, it is
applying to all authenticated users.
The only thing I'm confusing right now is if this policy should apply to
users OU or computer OU.

thanks,
Sarah

I used the gp computer configuration/window settings/
scripts/startup to load the blaster hot fix
windows2000-kb823980-x86-enu.exe and in the parameter
section put the /q /u.
Its working good.
