I have created an OU in Active Directory in window 2000 server to allow
temporary users to have access to the PC and some network resources. I have
also create a GPO for taht OU that has disabled access to programs ,Control
panel, and run among others, now I would like to Pin programs that would be
allowed to the start menu through GPO. Is this possible or should I create
short cut in the login script and place them on the desktop?


Thanks
John
 
John,

Do this in a logon script tied to the OU to pin things to the start bar as:


'Handle Pinning of the Application to the Start Button

'Pin the New Application to the Start Button
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace("<Path>")
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.ParseName("<AppExecutable>")
objFolderItem.InvokeVerb("P&in to Start Menu")
 
Thanks, I you try it.
