VerGuy VerGuy Just in Town Registered: 2008-12-12 Posts: 2	Hi I have just signed up and had a look around and can't find pointers to what I need. Hopefully I haven't missed them. I work in a school. The school network is divided into a [new] domain for students and a domain for staff. The student domain is coming along nicely [we are using Windows Server 2008 to manage the users] The staff domain is another matter. For rather complicated reasons we are using Windows Server 2003 [running in compatibility mode] for staff so I can't use the ADMs I would like to for some of the user settings. I am currently looking for two KIX scripts to do the following: 1. Redirect MyDocuments for staff at logon to U:\ This is their drive letter which contains MyDocuments. 2. Set the proxies for Internet Explorer. Staff are getting the proxy I use for students which will be heavily filtered in future and as a result unsuitable for staff use. I would like to be able to stipulate that: HTTP HTTPS FTP are set to values given by our ISP. Station OS: Windows XP Pro: SP3. It would be great if someone could let me know how to do this. Thanks in advance.

Well the folder redirection should really be done with a policy not with KiX, but here is some untested generic code to give you an idea.

Code:

Dim $DesktopFolder, $WD, $MyPersonalDocs
$DesktopFolder = '\\SERVER01\USERS' + @USERID + '\Desktop'
$MyPersonalDocs = '\\SERVER01\USERS' + @USERID + '\My Documents'
If GetFileAttr($DesktopFolder) & 16
  ;Folder found do nothing
Else
  MD $DesktopFolder
EndIf
If GetFileAttr($MyPersonalDocs) & 16
  ;Folder found do nothing
Else
  MD $MyPersonalDocs
EndIf
$WD = WriteValue('HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders','Desktop',$DesktopFolder,REG_EXPAND_SZ)
$WD = WriteValue('HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders','Personal',$MyPersonalDocs,REG_EXPAND_SZ)
