Hi all,

(first post to the group..been a lurker for a while)

I am redefining group policies here, and add some files to user desktops
automaitcally. I have a group policy for the group. I also have a group
logon script for drive mapping, etc.

Is it possible to add 3 files (rdp files) to each users desktop
(c:\documents and settings\ etc..) folder?
All of the people use their own machines (usually).

apologies if its a trivial question.

tia,
bernard

Sure. The path to the logged on user's desktop is %UserProfile%\Desktop. You
can utilize this path in WSH or a batch script.
