Darren, Omar-
Thanks for the tips!
Okay, Oman, I navigated to the directory where the vscript is located
(the group policy has a unc path set for the directory of the script)
and was able to run it and subsequently map my drives in the script. I
simply right clicked on the script and choose "open with command prompt"
Darren- In the group policy for that script, I enabled "Run legacy logon
scripts hidden" and disabled "Run logon scripts visible".
Neither setting change made any difference and i ran gpudate a couple
times and rebooted twice.
So it looks like Vista runs the script fine, just not from within a GPO.
Michael

Michael-
What happens if you set the logon scripts to run hidden (using policy)?

Thanks Darren,
I just checked the Minasi boards and couldn't find anything there. I'll
keep googling and trying to see what's going on. I had not yet checked
the event log so perhaps something is in there as well.
I should have made my problem more clear. The VBS scripts are logon
scripts that basically map drives. Nothing too fancy.
Thanks again! Let's hope there is a solution besides the "will be
supported on Longhorn server group policies".
Michael

Michael-
My guess is that this is a UAC issue. I have heard it come up once
before with Vista. Not sure though-I will try to dig some more.

Hello all-
I am now running Vista in my windows 2003 domain and one of the first
things I noticed was that my VBS scripts that normally run on XP are no
longer being processed.
Now is the problem stemming from the fact that the script is set in a
GPO and the Vista box can't interpret it or is it a security issue in
Vista that I have to dig through to allow it to run.
Thanks guys in advanced for any thoughts.
Michael
