I was doing it by adding the below to the users login VBS script. Everything
else in the script works, and if I manually run the script after logging in it
works. But not during login. The docs say run it as the user......XP machines
stall for some time then are ok but it has not run. Win 7 machines stall
forever then come up with a blank desktop.
But again if I browse to the logon script and double click it as the user it
fires fine and shows up. All the testing utilities for Lansweeper and their
knowledgebase ideas come back as ok.
Dim WshNetwork
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.run "\\domain\netlogon\VBS\Machine\LanSweeper\lsclient.exe

I can't say anything about how the premium version works, but I had no problems
executing the lsclient remotely using a couple of two-liner batch files and
psexec with a domain admin account.
This command triggers the lansweeper client on all the workstations listed in
C:\pcs.txt<file:///\\wcul12c:\pcs.txt> which you create and drop somewhere (c:\
in this example):
psexec @c:\pcs.txt -u domain\domainadminaccount
"\\fileserver\share\lansweeper.bat<file:///\\fileserver\share\lansweeper.bat>"
Lansweeper.bat has to be put on a share and basically points to the
lsclient.exe for all the workstations to find and directs them to your
lansweeper server netbios name. Mine has just this line:
"\\server\share\lsclient.exe<file:///\\server\share\lsclient.exe>"
mylansweeperserver
What is more trouble is figuring out how to get it to rescan things after it
has built the database once. Finally found that in the Lansweeper
configuration utility.

Ok, I have seen this mentioned many times here so I am looking at it real hard.
I like it a lot, using the free version I have to have the client execute an
exe as they log on to 'phone home'. Having a heck of a time getting that to run
under a user account (non-admin). The pay version uses AD to look up computers
and poll them, no client side software needed.
I have no desire to fight this for testing when we plan to just do the premium
version if it passes testing. So the question is those of you using the premium
AD feature is it pretty trouble free...it finds your machines and reports on
them ok.
