UAC being enabled shouldn't stop the login scripts from running. I have never touched UAC on any of the networks I look after and the scripts run fine. However WSUS setup should really be done with group policy, and if you are doing registry entries and things like that, then those can be problematic. Straight drive and printer mappings should work fine.
Two things to check. 1. Does the script run manually from the netlogon share. 2. It could be that the workstation is starting too quickly for the network. Check the logon server variable by typing set in a command prompt. If it is the local machine then Windows is logging in using cached credentials rather than live. This is one of those times where I like my dual login script method. In the domain I have login.cmd listed. All this does is call login2.cmd, but it is also dumps a log file in to the user profile. Therefore when it comes to troubleshooting, I can see what happened. http://loginscripts.info/recording.asp Another option would be set yourself with a separate login script and strip it down. See whether there is something in the script that is causing the problem.

From: Evan Brastow [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, July 04, 2010 7:40 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Windows 7 not running logon script? After another frustrating experience with Dell, I just purchased a Falcon Northwest Talon system to replace my two year old Dell XPS 730 system that needed a new motherboard that apparently Dell didn't stock and didn't care to. So, this is my first system at work with Windows 7. And I'm having an issue already... my logon script doesn't seem to be running. Drives aren't mapped, WSUS isn't setup, etc... The domain is a Windows Server 2003 domain... the scripts are batch files that are called from the user accounts (in other words, I'm still doing this "the old way" without AD really being involved in the login scripts.) Any thoughts on why Win7 won't run the login script? Thanks, and Happy 4th :) Evan ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
