I am looking to setup a logon script that will automatically setup a
users account an Outlook. All of the machines are running Outlook 2003
SP2 and the server is running Exchange 2003. Does anyone know how to do
this, or if it is even possible? Thanks for your help, I've been
searching for days with no luck.
 
Microsoft uses text files with a .prf extension and a highly structured format to provide information to OUtlook that enables Outlook to create or modify a mail profile. You can create such .prf files with the Custom Installation Wizard or Custom Maintenance Wizard tools in the Office Resource Kit. For more details, including a variety of .prf deployment methods, read the excellent white paper "Configuring Outlook Profiles by Using a PRF File" at http://office.microsoft.com/search/redir.aspx?assetid=HA011403051033&QueryID=pHm7c_60I&respos=3

The page at http://www.slipstick.com/exs/olroam.htm includes information on other profile tools and resources.
