Anyone have a way of getting Vista and SBS2003 standard login scripts to
work ?

What do you think is broken? A standard SBS login script requires
administrative privileges on the client, so will throw a UAC prompt. This
is expected behaviour, at least at the moment. There's an update in the
works for SBS to "improve" Vista client support.

I have several Vista machines running against SBS without any major
problems. I don't generally use the SBS Client Deployment tools though, so
I have amended my SBS login script to not run the Client Setup application
on Vista.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the reply. Its doing what I expected, but I need to make
sure that any scripts deployed by a valid source (eg logon scripts) are
run successfully.

I did hear about using a Shim (or a shiv?) to tell Vista to run the
logon script with UAC privs, but I've not found any useful info on how
to do this.

Adrian.
