Creating a logon script
Hi - I need to create a logon script which will run in a group policy OU. The script will run an executable file from a folder on the server which will insert a user specific signature into Outlook.
Basically I am setting up machines so that Outlook signatures "roam" with users.
The executable file is located here:
C:\Outlook_Signatures\ExSy nc
Could someone give me an example of what the BAT file should look like?

So, I created a simple script which looks like this:
\\server\Outlook_Signature s\ExSync.e xe
I have saved it as logon.bat and copied it into the following folder on the server:
C:\Windows\sysvol\sysvol\* domainName *\scripts
From AD User and Computers I have selected the users>properties>profile> and entered "logon.bat" in the appropriate field.
Still can't get the roaming Outlook signature to work.

Although it does require that an executable file must be run from each workstation. So, I guess that the logon script would be quite simple as all it would be doing is calling up the exe file from the location folder.
Thanks
