AD Logon Script Does not Run on Windows 2000 Clients

[jilund]

Hello,

I can't figure this out! The logon script that I have added to the Group Policy Object will not run from my Windows 2000 clients. Oddly enough, it will run perfectly from the XP boxes on the domain.

Here are some details: It's a Windows 2000 native-mode domain (no NT4 servers or clients). The logon script was placed in the "%WINDIR%\SYSVOL\sysvol\domain-name\scripts" and then added to the GPO of the target OU (as per Microsoft's instructions).

When users logon using the Windows 2000 SP4 clients, the logon script does not run at all. But you can browse to the "\netlogon" share and run the script without any problems. (Again, XP clients run it without problems).

I have spent days trying to get this resolved: all necessary local services seem enabled, users and PCs seem to have proper rights to run them...

Any useful advice will greatly appreciated! Thank you,

jaime i.

Have you found out any information on this? We are having the EXACT same problem. I just put a group policy on one of the sub OU's in our OU on Active Directory, and the policy has a logon script which is supposed to go off. There are also display settings and wallpaper settings set to go off in the policy. The wallpaper and display settings work, but not the logon script (and the script DOES work when you run it independently from the policy).

All of our clients are Win 2K, so I cannot test against an XP machine.

Have you discovered anything??
