Local Group Policy - User Logoff Scripts



I've configured a local group policy on our Win2K Advanced server (running
Terminal Services) to run a script when users logoff. If I log on and log
off as an administrator, the script runs fine. If I log on and log off as a
general user, the logoff script never runs (it may attempt to run, but
doesn't generate an expected output file nor does it give any errors).

When logged on as a general user, I can access the script location
(%systemroot%\system32\GroupPolicy\User\Scripts\Logoff and run it by
double-clicking on the .cmd file. When doing this, the script generates the
expected output file (in another location). I'm puzzled as to why this
script won't run upon logging off (unless I'm logged in as an administrator).

Is there an alternative method for invoking scripts upon logoff and/or is
there a way to debug this type of an issue?
