RE: [ActiveDir] Wireless and logon script

Title: Wireless and logon script

We had a similiar problem with older cisco firmware and windows drivers. The problem was that the computer was connecting to the network after the policies were supposed to be applied to it. We updated all Cisco software and firmware on both the AP's and the clients (firmware, windows driver, and Aironet Client Utility). I know this is a hassle if you have a lot of clients or AP's but I know of no other way to tell the driver to load before windows starts.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Wireless and logon script

Can someone explain the mechanics of the logon for me, when the user is on a wireless connection? We have Cisco Wireless Access Points, and a Cisco ACS, but I haven’t been involved with their setup. Basically the deal is when a user logs in to a wired LAN connection, the logon script always runs. When they log on with wireless, the logon script does not run. To me as a casual observer, it looks like the authentication does not happen until after a cached logon takes place and the user attempts to reach a resource requiring authentication, such as Exchange.

Thanks,
