WE have a Win 2003 server a small copper network with one hub and one wireless laptop (Acer TM 370) running Win XP SP2.

When the lattop logs on to the domain this is what I think happens
- logon starts but wireless is off so logs on locally
- During logon wireless is started
- Local logon completes
- wireless hand shake completes
- machine detects the server and connects to the domain without running logon script, or applying group policies

If the machine is logged off and on again the logon script etc runs because the wireless connection is still active.

How can I make the logon process wait untill the wireless connection is up before logging on?, and what will happen if im logging on away from the network, will it wait forever? Or is there a way of having the fast logon but runningthe Server side scripts etc when the connection is made?

I will cross post this to the Server2003 group

Thanks for your help

Tim
