The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Script in Group Policy works for Domain Admin, but not for regular user.

Asked by vmrfadmin in VB Script, Windows 2003 Server

Tags: , , ,

Hello Everyone,

I am working on a number of new computers, and I am attempting to automate the process of getting them ready for my users as much as possible.  One of the steps that I am taking is to add a vbs script to be used to add all of the printers that the users will need when they log onto the computer.  I have some other scripts I am working on, but having problems with also. I'll ask about those in other questions. For this particular script, I am noticing that when I log onto the computer as a domain admin the printers show up as expected. When I log out, and log back into the same computer as a "regular" user, those printers aren't showing up. Is there something I need to do differently with the script? Is there a configuration I need to make somewhere else to have the script work for a "regular" user?  I have the script in my Group Policy for that machine under "User Configuration" >> "Windows Settings" >> "Scripts (Logon/Logoff).  I did have the script saved to my user folder on one of our shares. I attempted to put it with the batch scripts on one of our main servers thinking it was a permission issue, but that didn't work either.

Here is the Script:

'// Name: setprint.vbs
'// Description: Add a network printer and make it the default
'// Accounting Printers

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")

'// Adds the printer. Substitute your server name and printer share.
WshNetwork.AddwindowsPrinterConnection "\\Server1\User Printer"
WshNetwork.AddwindowsPrinterConnection "\\Server1\User Printer 2"
WshNetwork.AddwindowsPrinterConnection "\\Server1\User Printer 3"

'// Makes the specified printer the default.
WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\vmrfsv1\2120-STN-ACC"

Thank you in advance for you help with this. I really would like to have all of this working smoothly so that we can reduce the amount of time it takes to configure computers for users.
