Thanks Lan.
yes the copying and restoring of the OPs files has the current time stamp.

How do you set the Attrib for the OPS file hiden value in the
logon/logoff scripts.

thank you.

From the looks of it, I don't think the issue is with your INI file.

Outside of the progress bar. Can you confirm that the network location being
written too by the login script creates an updated *.OPS file with a current
time stamp on user logoff?

Are you doing any trickery like setting a "hide" file attribute on the *.OPS
file after it's written? I've found the flex kit doesn't handle hidden
files, so in my login / logoff I'm using Attrib to remove the hidden value
so that the OPS file can be read it on log on, and again on logoff so that
it can be written too.

You may also want to consider running Process mon from the console of the TS
server during user logoff of Server A, and again during the logon to Server
B -
