I am looking to create a batch file so that on a network of 70 computers, i can get our company intranet on startup

i tried "rem start T:\intranet.htm" but that only loaded up the internet.

can anyone suggest a way that i can do it

thanks very much

Confused....
What do you mean you "want to get your comapny intranet on startup"?
Are you asking for that to be your users' homepage? Or you want the intranet to open on boot? ________________________________________

i want the company intranet to load on boot and i cant go round every compute and put it in startup because that would take too long and i am on a tight deadline
 
Here's an idea...
Run a logon script for this...

Have the script edit the registry and edit this line:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Startpage
Change the Startpage vaule to your intranet site.

Then have the script set it so the internet starts on boot. When it opens it will go to the intranet site. Having this in the logon script will prevent users from permanently changing the home page.

That should do it for you. ________________________________________
