IIRC, assigning to a user doesn't actually install it until
the application is launched for the first time. I'd have to check that for sure,
though. It should create any shortcuts at the outset
however.

Yup - you need to get in the habit of specifying UNC paths rather than
mapped drives for all GPO deployed software.

Nope. The contents of public folders are not exposed via
LDAP (which makes sense when you think about it).
You can. however, use something like CDONTS or some of the
other MAPI programatic interfaces to enumerate the contents of the
PF.

to start..

Hmm.. that's interesting Roger. It does seem to work
perfectly as I had mentioned in a test environment, withexactly the same

The only differences between environmentsare obvious
ones, server names, usernames, security groups, production workstations are
mixed 2000/XP machines.
The GC per DC question came up in one of the sessions I
attended (with the Whidby team) and it strikes me that there is a common
misconception even within Redmond that "All GC's are Created Equally" - which I

I figured the best way to do a bulk import from fields
exported from Outlook was to format the fields using CSVDE syntax and import
from that. That worked perfectly, now all I have to figure out is what the

Have you tried assigning it to machines instead of users?
Does that change the behavior at all?

I sure didn't. Might want to talk with the leads to see if
they grabbed it, or if it was returned to them.

FWIW - If your environment has HP OpenView Operations for Windows with the AD SPI, it
will check all of these records for you assuming you are monitoring each DC. In
addition, it will also determine if that each site is being covered by a GC and notify

If you aren't adverse to command line tools, check out memberof on the free

It will rip through and find all group memberships within a domain and
should also get Universal group memberships through out the domain as well.
