I would like to restart domain computer once a day and like to deploy
script
via GPO. Would it be possible ? also at the time it restarts i would like
to
call another vbscript that deletes some files in computer.

Can someone point out how to achieve this ?


With a GPO you can deploy logon, logoff, startup, and shutdown scripts. The
shutdown script, for example, runs during shutdown. It does not initiate
shutdown. I don't see how a GPO script would meet your needs. Logon and
logoff scripts run with the credentials of the user, who probably does not
have permission to restart or delete files.

A VBScript program using WMI can shutdown or restart a computer remotely.
For example:

Perhaps you could restart the computers remotely. You could read computer
names from a text file. WMI can also be used in a VBScript program to
remotely delete files. For example:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/guide/sas_fil_vudw.mspx

You need a query for the specific files you want to delete. Browse more of
"Microsoft Windows 2000 Scripting Guide" for more on using WMI queries to
delete files meeting your conditions:
