Hi
I have a VB script that I am trying to run from a single account on Windows Server 2003. It's a simple script which copies a folder and files from a server to a local drive. The script runs fine manually but will not run when I add it to my own account on AD. Here's what I have done to try to get it running:
I added the script to \\server\c\WINDOWS\SYSVOL\sysvol\domainname\scripts and asked it to run from the "login script" option within the "profile" tab on my account.
Tried asking it to run from the "Environment" option within my account.
Moved the script to an area on the server (which I knew I had full access to)and changed the entry on the account to match the path.
Used a simple working batch file instead of the script with all of the scenarios I listed above.
I deleted the local cached profile on the PC and rebooted and tried the various options previously listed.
My PC (running XP Pro SP2)or my account are not affected by any Group Policy and I am an administrator so I cannot give myself any additional access. Thanks in advance to anybody who can shed some light on this.
