Hi all, I've got a question on how powerful a login script can be...
Environment I've got : We've got windows 2000 server with domain
controller/active directory, 3000 desktops login to the domain everyday.
My Requirements :
Show a popup to the client machine during the login and boot up process,
show our company's policy(grabbed from MS-SQL). The popup box must have a
tick box users can tick to accept the policy. User may proceed without
ticking the box and the logon process continues. The user's policy acceptance
history is logged into SQL database.
Condition for the meesage box popup : There's a condition for the popup box
to show up though. If the user has seen this box and agreed with the policy
last 6 weeks, then the message box doesn't even show up for the user.
I am actually not a system admin, I'm a developer who can write vbscript.
I'm totally new to this area and want to know the feasibility of the project
using wsh(vbscript/javascript).
,,, Login scripts are run on client computers, don't they??? If so, our 3000
client computers must have access to the sql server?? Am I right?
,,, It's going to be great if the login script runs on server, not on
client, Can anybody confirm where it runs..
,,, What I am trying to do is impossible, or is there any alternative
solutions??
Please advise,,
Thank you all experts out there in advance!!
