It is that simple, I stopped doing the delete in logon scripts because for some bizarre reason, the del would work and the copy would fail (sometimes), removing their shortcut altogether.
What I ended up with is: copy \\Domain\Shortcuts\shortcut.lnk "%userprofile%\desktop" /Y The /Y does overwrite. Works well for me.

My thinking is to include this in the login script. Is this possible? Is it a matter of the following: Del c:\documents and settings\%username%\desktop\shortcut.lnk Copy \\servername\share\newshortcut.lnk <file:///\\servername\share\newshortcut.lnk> c:\documents and settings\%username%\desktop\shortcut.lnk Is it that simple, or am I truly a noob?
