My enviroment-
2k XPe 1.0 nFuse 1.5

My goal-
I want my remote nFuse users to get our company intranet.
I tried publishing internet explorer, than specifying in the command line (application location) the URL to our intranet. From a command line I would type something like this:

C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer>iexplore
This launches IE, ignores whatever the home page is set to, and goes to When I add this to the application location setting on the app, I recieve the following error:

&quot;<application_name> failed to start&quot;

I also tried making the home page, running the Office profile wizard from the ORK, and pointing a RunOnce key for each terminal server user's profile to said profile. This is working for options I set in other office applications, but the home page is not sticking for term users.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Ps> I can't use Netscape, due to ADO functionality on the intranet.

Have you tried changing it in the default user profile?
The change probably won't take place for existing users. Try creating a new user to try after doing it.

How about in the registry?
