Hi! I've tried using WinSTLE to make msi's to package driver updates, and program installations (unattended ones), however, they never seem to work. Does anyone have any other advice? How do you make msi's that, uh, work:)? Thanks guys, any advice would be greatly appreciated

Actually, i'm mistaken, it was a silly mistake. I fixed it now! Thanks anyway.

I have a problem where users don't log off their machines... Can I set something up where they are automatically logged off after a set period of idle time? Or does anyone have any different solutions to this problem? Thanks.

We created a simple vbscript msgbox program, and placed it in the group policy User Configuration/Windows Settings/Scripts/Logon however, nothing is run on the client machines. Any ideas? We tried to logoff/relogin the server to see if it would run on our server, but it still didn't run. Any...

Anyone? I'd really like to get this GP to work (it sounds so great to enforce all these rules)

Alright. I tried the static IP before, but that didn't help (i specified the IP that was given already by the DHCP before). In fact, if I remember correctly, it stopped working on the network? The GP is applied to the domain first. I also tried an OU. No go. I tried applying both User and...

Hello! I'm setting up a win2k pro lab at my school (yes, it's all legit) I've got all the accounts down and stuff and everything is well, EXCEPT that my group policies aren't being implemented. At first I wanted to use them to deploy MSI apps to computers (and i still want that function)...
