Logon scripts & exchange mailboxes
-
We use Active Directory on a Windows 2000 server and Microsoft Exchange. Our workstations are mix of OS from Windows 98 to XP Pro. Our Microsoft Office versions also vary from 2000 to XP to 2003. My problem is that I need users to be able to logon on to any machine and be able to read their mail without coming to me to go and set up the properties of outlook/exchange to change the user. I have found some scripts etc to find out the current user, to get details from the Active Directory but I have not been able so far to find how to change the mailbox setting from a script. Has anybody any idea? :doh: Regards Robert T Turner

You may be able to use a transform file. I think the office resource kits have a way to build one. By configuring its settings, outlook can change when a new users logs in. I use it with NT4, 2K, and XP... Not too sure if it works with 98. It might if you are using profiles. The network is down...let's go get bagels.
