Hello Brandon,

Please post the path you are using.

It is the path that the GPO Mgmt snap-in takes a person to when you open the GPO, go to the Logon script section, click Show Files and it opens the folder for you within the GPO folder hierarchy of where it stores the script. I've been able to access it this way before with no problem when I was first debugging the script. I don't have the full path right now because I'm not at work but it would just be something like \\domain.com\sysvol\<policy id>\admin templates\scripts\logon or something like that.




Best regards

I have a logon script defined in a group policy. It runs fine when I
log on to computers in the domain however, if I try to open the script
or run it from explorer by using GPO Mgmt snap-in to open the folder
it is in, I'm told that I either don't have the rights to access it or
run it. Why would it run just fine as my account during the logon
sequence but yet I can't even open the file (let alone run it) by
opening the folder it is in using Windows Explorer after I've logged
in? No errors were logged pertaining to trying to access the script
file. This is insane.

thanks
