Try this: http://cwashington.netreach.net/depo/view.asp?Index=498&ScriptType=command
I’ve got a test script that I’ve been trying to integrate with my existing logon script that will connect extra network drives for certain users. (I don’t want to have to make a new logon script and place it in the user’s profile, because I’m just that lazy :-P) I’ll test this array thing out there and see if it works.
That site has some OK articles on batch…I haven’t found any sites that are really good, just some that will give you answers.

Any idea if there is a way to use an IF statement and see if it is equal to an array of items? Instead of having to make an if computername = x for each and every possible computer it would be nice to be able to loop through a list.

Behalf Of Micheal S. Mand If anyone is interested, I’ve found a group of three little batch files that, when run, create HTML help files for DOS commands your computer understands. I was mostly excited about the file called ADSHELP.BAT. It only works on Win 2k3 servers though, so if you don’t have Win 2k3 (like me), you’re SOL.
You can download these files here:

The page I found this on:

Hope this helps someone!

Excellent. Thanks for the tip. I totally forgot about setting permissions on the group.
On the delete of the group I actually meant to say delete from the group.

Behalf Of Kamlesh Parmar Nice to know, that it worked out for you.

tried using the /delete to delete the group but if the person isnt in that
group the script just hangs.
If you just give "add/remove self as member" access it doesn't work thru GUI. You have to specifically go to propery level permission and assign WRITE access on members attribute, then members will be able to manage their membership of group. Give that right to SELF security principal. ( I just tested that again)
Also, one caveat, If you have an AD2000 forest or an AD2003 forest running on the Windows 2000 functional level, you should take into account the following warning: If you delegate group management to members, it might create problem if user update their membership on different DC. All members of a group are stored in one multivalued property. If that member list is modified on two domain controllers simultaneously (within replication latency), one of the two changes will be lost.

Needed to use CPAU from joeware, but there is one problem. The password is displayed in the batch which is pretty much unsecure and goes against any password policy. Anyways, I have it adding the user to the correct group upon logon. It takes a little while though for the user to show in the group. I also tried using the /delete to delete the group but if the person isnt in that group the script just hangs.

How would you go about removing the user from the group in a login script?

You could create a new user security group and a GPO for the homepage. Use security filtering so that group only gets the policy. Remove the new users from the group after x days.

How about a logon script to take care of this? Check for a HKCU key/value. If it's not there, assume it's the first logon and set their homepage and then set the homepage.

Hello,
I just joined the list, so forgive me if this has been answered already.
I've been put to the task of using AD to set the home page of all NEW users to our company intranet, but not override the current user's settings. We want this to happen automatically because we are usually creating new users with little notice, and very little time to make the account active. I've searched and searched all over existence for something related to this, and so far have only come up with some hacks to permanently set every user's home page the same. We want users to be able to change this home page if they wish, without it resetting every time they log in to their machine. If they log into a new machine, we could also set the home page to the intranet, but this isn't as necessary.
Has anyone even heard of doing anything like this? Is it even possible?
Thanks in advance, Micheal
S. Mand
