It's not about scriptomatic or W2k Sp2.  The user properties specifically
for Terminal Services on a W2k server are retrieved and stored in a binary
format unlike everything else.  This was fixed with W2k3.

The WMI functionality that Scriptomatic, for instance, relies on was
released for Windows 2000 SP2, so you should be able to write WMI scripts
that run on Windows 2000 hosts and Windows 2000 Active DIrectory. I may be
wrong, though. If it's a VBS issue, you can always do it in Perl.

He wants it for W2k,  the vbscripts will only work for w2k3 unless you can
find a third-party .dll that will access those objects for you.

Write your own. It's moderately easy with WMI and Scriptomatic (
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/tools/wmimatic.mspx ). If you
know Kixtart or VBS, you can do it with those tools also....

Looking for a Win2k AD tool that will allow me to change the Terminal
Services Profile tab on a mass scale for all users.  Anyone have a
suggestion?
