Netlogon scripts

[Diaonic]

Iv been reading some about making a login script that makes a home folder that only that user has permission to with windows 2000 server, and it uses the %<username>% command , but i don't know how to use this. Can anyone give me some insight?

Steps and course of action.

Thanks

I don't know the exact details off the top of my head, but I think you need to go into the Active Directory, under users, then pick someone and pull-up their properties.

Go to the Profile tab and you will see a HOME FOLDER section at the bottom.

You can do this through Active Directory as long as you have Active Directory controlling the domain and the user's are logging into the domain. The same is true for a login script because you instruct the profile to pull the login script via Active Directory. Simply browse to the user's account in AD, right-click, select properties, then profile. Within this window you are able instruct the server with what to do when that user logs into the domain.

You could also probably do it with old-school domain login scripts and a 3rd party utility like Kix32 if you don't have AD.
