RE: Can't copy .exe to Startup Scripts Folder on DC



I tried the same thing on an entirely different test domain and got the same
results. I also have found that I can't copy ANY .exe to the
\scripts\startup folder. Someone else should try this to see what I mean.

I am baffled why the MS article for using Deployed Printers says to do this
if it can't be done. Is there a default setting that I need to change?

In any case, I got around this by copying pushprinterconnections.exe to
Sysvol, then used a batchfile as the startup script, with the line
"\\domainname\sysvol\pushprinterconnections.exe".

| Hello,
|
| Thank you for using newsgroup!
|
| From your post, it looks like there is a handle on
| pushprinterconnections.exe. You may exclude the file from antivirus
| scanning and killed handle on it. Alternatively we have a copy of
| pushprinterconnections.exe in netlogon share and change the policy path
in
| startup scripts in machine policy. Run gpupdate /force on client system
and
| Reboot the client system to see if it still occurs.
|
| If the problem persists, please make sure if the domain admins have been
| listed in local administrators group. What is the exact error message?
|
| Thanks & Regards,
|

| | I am trying to use GP to deploy printers. Per the MS article for such,
I
| | need to run pushprinterconnections.exe as a startup script. I am at
the
| DC
| | running 2003 R2, SP2 and when I try to copy that file to the
| Scripts\Startup
| | folder for any OU, I get access denied errors even though the domain
| admin is
| | performing the action. I checked the permissions and of course domain
| admins
| | have full control and there are no denies. I tried copying a test
batch
| file
| | and had no trouble. I also tried copying pushprinterconnections.exe to
| to
| | the Scripts\Shutdown folder and had no trouble.
| |
| | Can anyone explain this? Maybe I can run it as a shutdown script
| instead,
| | but I shouldn't have to.
| |
| | Thanks.
