I have a windows 20003 server, setup for RAS. When my users vpn in, how can
set it up that the domain login script is automatically loaded once their
username and password is authenicated?:
 
Making a VPN connection is not a login operation. It only sets up an IP
connection, so login scripts do not run. The user has usually already done a
local login.

You can force a login by using the "login using a dialup connection"
option, but most people don't like that. They like to keep their local login
alive.

So you really need to use a different sort of script and use some other
event to trigger it to run.
 
What I do for this is to copy my login scripts to the desktop of the user
and then have them run them once they are logged into the VPN. This is
typically a one time issue as next time they login those mapped drives are
typically just disconnected and once they click on them they reconnect. This
can vary by OS though.
 
You can use the Mircosoft CMAK tool. It will allow you to run a
post-connection script to map drives to users, you can also run a disconnect
script to unmap the drive just before they disconnect.
