We are using Kixstart scripts and so far no problems here.

Vista test station / 2003 native mode.  A local admin does not get
drive mappings via domain loginscript.  Regular users do.

Control"

So this is a common thing.  Anyone else seen this?  I have to run a
script that uses task scheduler to run the logon script?  Really?  We
dont have a lot of local admins, but this seems like a frikkin lame
workaround to get drive mappings on vista.  I suppose I can disable
UAC, but that kills IE protected mode.

Feeling much better now.
