Bruce- I looked through your script that you had posted here previously (I'm assuming its the same one you're having problems with). I didn't see anything that immediately popped out. One thing I would suggest is to modify the script to add some debugging info at key points, using the FileSystem

[ActiveDir] Policy not applying and RSoP

2004-01-31 Thread Bruce Clingaman
I am trying to troubleshoot why my logoff script will not run for users. Whenever I run the RSoP it gives an error "the system could not find the file specified." It doesn't say what file. RSoP will run for my account. Other policies are being applied for the users but not the logout script.

I have a former student (a PSS tech.) looking into the very same thing and received a voicemail/email last night outlining precisely the behavior you reference. The Microsoft definition of a lingering object (in my opinion and this instance) is too strict and an unnecessarily "guarded" (my two pen

Thanks Darren!   I will do that!  I had the users placed in the power users group and I tested by going out to Windows Update…  It didn’t work, but I think we’re going to push those out ourselves anyway.  Installing software after putting the user in power users worked.  Thanks for the h

Joe- If I follow what you're asking for, I think you could use a machine-based Restricted Groups Policy on a GPO linked to the LaptopUsers OU to accomplish what you want. In most cases on XP, the local Power Users group should give a user sufficient rights to install software. So, if you set up

Hey everyone out there!   Please advise:  I’m working on getting a bunch of laptops (Windows XP Pro) out (Windows 2003 AD) and want to create a group policy that states:  IF Laptop is in laptopUsers OU then – allow any user to install software on it.   Maybe my logic is off, but here’
