I am currently using vbscript in a GPO for mapped drives. Is it better to
use kixstart or something else instead and specify that in the user login
path?

Thanks
 
Tony,

Can not really tell you which is better. I use kixstart at one location and
..vbs in several others. I prefer either of these over the old school .bat
or .cmd logon scripts.

What is it that causes you to ask this question? Is there something that
you would like to do but can not do it?

Baisically, I want to push mapped drives and printers to users, as we are
moving away from novell. I would rather not have any login script windows
pop up. I noticed that using a login vbscript via gpo, sometimes I would get
a mapped drive based on group membership but sometimes I wouldnt. Then I
have to do a gpupdate /force and maybe just log off and log back on and it
will reappear again. Weird.

I would prefer sticking to vbscript if either one works the same way.

Thanks
 
Tony,

With the vb script and gpo - are the problem computers WINXP Pro? I bet the
WIN2000 systems do not have a problem with this.
