Nice idea. We disable desktop shortcuts here, so it never entered my mind.
Perhaps for v1.1?

SUGGESTIONS?? A util just like that but to build a desktop for each user
would be nice.

Subject: [THIN] Utility to generate custom start menus based on NT Group
membersh ip.
A while back somebody on the list mentioned that he (or possibly she) used
scripting to generate a start menu for his (or her) published desktop
sessions based on NT Group memberships. That sounded like such a good idea
to me that I've written a small utility to do the same thing without the
need for any complex scripting. Any NT groups you choose may have shortcuts
associated with them and if a user belongs to multiple groups they get all
the icons associated with all the groups they belong to. This seems better
than system policy based custom menus to me, since only a single custom
folder can apply to a given user with that method.
With this method you could create a number of NT groups and associate a
single icon with each if you wanted, allowing you to precisely specify the
contents of the start menu.
I'm giving it away for free. Mail me off-list if you'd like a copy.
Sorry if anyone sees this as Spam, and further apologies to whoever came up
with the idea in the first place ;-)
Regards
Angus
