Logon Script

Hi,
we have a windows 2000 domain controller and I have setup a logon script (.vbs) under profile on my account in AD. The path I used is \\machinename\netlogn\login.vbs.
I tried running the scrip by itself and the script is working fine. Not sure why its not working when I login to my computer using the network credentails..Here is the script I am using.

Const HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001

strComputer = "."
Set objReg = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
 
strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main"
ValueName = "Start Page"
strValue = "http://testhomepage.com"
objReg.SetStringValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath, ValueName, strValue

That could be the problem, how are you implementing the login script?

In the AD, i put the script on the user profile: under profile tab and  under logon script.

Can the user access the path where the login script is stored?
