Re: RDP logn script override?

Yes, this is set through Group Policy. I'll try to explain it a little more
clearly, I often tend to ramble incoherently... :-)

* In Active Directory Users and Computers, creat an OU - let's call it
'TermServers', and put your RDP boxes in this OU.

* Create a Group Policy Object for this OU and set the Loopback option to
replace (Computer Configuration - Administrative Templates - System - Group
Policy), and then add the logon script you want to apply to the users only
when they log on to an RDP box (User Configuration - Windows Settings -
Scripts - Logon.)

What this does is apply a different logon script when the users log on to an
RDP box, and doesn't interfere with whatever script runs for the users when
they log on to their regular worksatations.

HTH,
