Replicate application settings to user profile on terminal server.
I am running an application which is the FAT client of SAP Logon application on a terminal server (W2012). Within the client, I need to create a connection and specify username, password, and server in order to work.
I login as an administrator, launch the apps and create a connection. It works. However, when I login as another user, the connection is not there in his profile.
How do I copy that setting to everyone profile or new user who login to that terminal server?
Thanks.

You can script it.. that will be the easiest way to do this.
I wrote an article on this a while back, and it still gets a lot of reads every month.

The short version is you will create a script file in c:\windows\application compatibility scripts\logon\. It can be as simple as
Then you create a new file called usrlogn1.cmd in c:\windows\system32.
That's pretty much it.. You may need to go through and do some of the other steps I have in my writeup.. but the basics are here.
The other option is to create it in the default user profile in the same location, and then any new profiles will get the file. . The issue is that existing profiles will not pick it up, but the script will absolutely pick it up.

if not exist %appdata%\sap\common\saplogon.ini copy c:\source\saplogon.ui
(obviously putting in whatever source path you want for the preconfigured saplogon.ui. Be sure to strip out any personal information in the INI file that you start as your source.Then you create a new file called usrlogn1.cmd in c:\windows\system32.
