It adds a group to the RDP permissions so
our off-hours operators have TS access into the servers. It’s in the
startup script because we wanted to make sure that if that ever got changed
manually by someone, a reboot would cure it From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe What exactly is the EXE doing? Not all
system services are not available when the startup script runs. For instance,
try to shutdown a server from a startup script. If you ever really need to do
that, let me know, I have an exe that will do it. Dean told me about issues
doing it and I got interested enough to look at it and it pissed me right off
so I "fixed" it. From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Creamer, Mark It is a vbs. Actually, though, I found out
a little more. I put a fresh server into the same OU, and rebooted. Turns out
most of the script is successful. The only part that isn’t is a line that
calls an executable file (.exe), which is also located in the same folder as
the vbscript. If I wait until the server is fully logged
in, the script runs the executable with no problem. If I leave it to the
startup script to run, it does not. I’m using the Exec method of the
wscript object, such as: Ws.exec(“myexecutable.exe”) Does that make sense? Thanks again, Mark From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is it a vbs? If yes, have you tried
calling it from a bat file? Does it work if you do that? What you can do
depends on the outcome of that test. Deji From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Creamer, Mark I have a situation in which startup scripts assigned to
various OUs where different servers are located are not running. If I log in as
a domain admin, browse to the location of the script in the GPO assigned to the
OU where that server is located, I can launch the script with no problem. I’m having trouble figuring out why the script
won’t launch on its own. The only thing I’ve found so far in troubleshooting a
startup script is to look for an entry in the Application log with a source of
Userinit. However, I see no such entries. Can anyone think of what I might need
to look at? What permissions need to be enabled on the Policy itself, just in
case that’s the issue? Thanks, Mark
