File Replication Locations

Replication files and their targets

Note: Please refer to the File Paths appendix for the correct path(s) based on the version of Desktop Authority you are using.

Desktop Authority uses replication as a method of publishing Desktop Authority configurations to selected targets, which are usually Domain Controllers.

A log file is created during the replication process and lists each file that is published and to which folder. The log file is named SlRepl.txt.

This file can be located on the Operations Master in either (32-bit OS) - %Program Files%\Quest\Desktop Authority\Desktop Authority Manager or (64-bit OS) - %Program Files (x86)%\Quest\Desktop Authority\Desktop Authority Manager.

User Management

User Management files are published from the %Program Files%\Quest\Desktop Authority\Desktop Authority Manager\Scripts or %Program Files (x86)%\Quest\Desktop Authority\Desktop Authority Manager\Scripts, which is shared as SLscripts$.

User Management files are replicated to the User Management replication folder specified in Server Manager. This folder, by default, is \\server_name\NETLOGON (%windir%\SYSVOL\sysvol\[Domain Name]\scripts folder is shared as NETLOGON), but can be changed if necessary.

Desktop Authority API

The Desktop Authority API is a documented set of functions, variables and supplemental utility programs that allow you to fully harness the capabilities of Desktop Authority through custom scripting.

The Desktop Authority API can be broken down into four categories:

Functions: Wrap many lines of KiXtart code (and supplemental utilities) into a single line of code, for easy insertion into your custom scripts. Many of the Desktop Authority API functions are direct replacements for native KiXtart functions -- and they can overcome the security restrictions of the user logging on.

Dynamic Variables: Globally defined variables in the Desktop Authority engine. These variables are used by the engine itself and can be used in custom scripting.

Utility Programs have been developed to expand upon the built-in functionality of KiXtart. These tools are often wrapped by API Functions eliminating the need to execute them directly.

Dynamic Variables

Desktop Authority API - Dynamic Variables

Predefined Dynamic Variables can be used to aid in the creation of configuration elements. These variables are globally defined and used by Desktop Authority during the client logon process. Using them is helpful, if not a necessity, when writing custom scripts.

Dynamic Variables can be used in virtually every field within the Desktop Authority manager, including those fields with built-in lists. Simply press the F2 key to display a dialog that allows the selection of a predefined variable from a visual list. The dynamic variable will be inserted at the current position of the cursor.

These variables are available for a few different categories:

Applications Variables
Date and Time Variables
Folder and Disk Variables
Messaging System Variables
Network Variables
Operating System Variables
Security Variables
