Logon Script

I am new to VBScripting. I have created a logon script as a batch file. It does two things for me:
1) maps user drives based on group member ships
2) runs a software program that audits client software and hardware configuration.

The problem I am having is that the script is running minimized and users are closing out of it before the auditing software runs. I want to be able to hide the script so that users cannot close it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Here is an example of my script:

start \\server\trackit\audit32.exe


@Echo Off



net use K: \\server\share\%USERNAME%

:IfMaint
ifmember "domain\group_membership"
if not errorlevel 1 goto IfMIS
net use W: \\server\share
net use N: \\server\share


:IfMIS
ifmember "domain\group_membership"
if not errorlevel 1 goto Exit
net use P: \\server\share


:Exit
 
you might be better off putting this post to the BASIC:Microsoft forum.

or try one of the cmd parameters, say cmd /k or something like that
 
Can anyone tell me how i would get this to run in vbscript:

start \\server\trackit\audit32.exe
 
Have you tried this ?
Set Sh=CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Sh.Run "\\server\trackit\audit32.exe"

Hope This Help

Once you have your script set up to run as a vbscript, you can have it executed by a GPO and then you can choose to have it run hidden so the user can not watch (or close out) of the script.
