i create users accounts and put the path in for their
home folder. sometime i would forget to put it in. then
they would login and i would releize that i forgot to put
in the path. so i put it in and make them login again.
the home folder doesn't map. how can i fix this without
deleteing them and re-createing them? i'm using windows
2000 server
.
Brian,
I *might* have a solution for you but I have to confess
that I am not very proficient with scripting. So, I
guess what I am saying is that I might have a solution
for you where I could simply suggest the solution but not
really help in the implementation! But, that should not
be so tragic as I can point you to people who can!
I have never run into this situation before. I would
have to test it myself. I am guessing that you might be
out of luck - as far as using that process to create the
user's Home Folder with the appropriate permissions
already in place.
My thought is to use a vbs script to:
(1) check to see if the user has an existing Home Folder
(2) if yes, move on to the next user account
(3) if no, then create it via this process
(4) if process creates it, then apply the appropriate
permissions.
Now, how to do this? Don't know. Like I said, I am
realtively new to scripting.
Take a look at the following web sites:

Also, take a look at the scripting News Group...
Sorry that I can not provide a detailed solution. Still
in the process of learning scripting myself ( in those
free moments! ).
