I think the XP issue wasn't due to client side preferences, but due to how the task scheduler runs. The article said, "Prerequisites: This is a Windows Vista+ configuration as Windows XP has a more limited scheduling engine."
But I think I may have resolved the issue. Will know for sure shortly.

And it's working enough to initially authenticate the users-it's just periodically re-authenticating. I've e-mailed a couple of other districts that I know are using the same product, and have asked them what they're seeing. I've also disabled the group policy setting that was forcing synchronous script processing to see if that makes a difference. From: Andrew S.

And for me, running a simple logon script that sends a quick command to the appliance is easier than deploying an application to thousands of computers. Every new application/service that runs on a machine creates the potential for new problems, and for me--for our environment--doing that isn't a first choice. I already said why in a prior e-mail.
