KACE Desktop Authority 11.1 - Getting Started Guide

Assign Logon Script

Assign Script

The Assign Script dialog box provides the ability to assign a logon script to domain user accounts in order for the user to qualify for User Management settings. Computers that are only going to be configured with administrator settings from Computer Management profiles and objects are not required to have a logon script defined.

In addition to assigning a logon script to domain users, this tool can also be used to query which users in your domain currently have a specific logon script assigned to them. Any user who is a Domain Admin has the ability to update the assign/unassign logon scripts for users.

Select domain

On the left hand side of the Assign Script dialog, using the Active Directory OU and Groups tree, select the domain, group or organizational unit that will be used to locate users who will be assigned the Desktop Authority logon script.

Multi-select box

The elements in the user list can be selected one at a time or several at one time. You can select more than one element in the list using the Shift or Ctrl key in combination with a mouse click. To select multiple users, hold down the CTRL key while clicking the individual users to select. Consecutive users in the grid can be selected by clicking the first user to select and then, while holding down the SHIFT key, clicking the last user to select. To select the entire list of users select the checkbox to the left of the column headers. This box will be empty if no users are selected and will be filled with a square if some users are selected. A user's selected status may be changed by clicking on it. If there is only one user in the list, it will always be selected.

Find users

Enter search criteria that will find matching Active Directory users. This is an inclusive search. Any user found with the search criteria in any part of the user name will be found as a match. Valid characters consist of [A-Z], [a-z] and [0-9].

Searching with a specific OU highlighted in the tree will search only that specific OU.

Assign script

Click Assign script to assign a logon script to all selected users in the list. In most cases, the script to assign will be SLOGIC. However, depending upon circumstances, this can be changed and the new script can be selected from the drop list to the left of the Assign script button.

Unassign script

Click Unassign script to unassign a logon script from all selected users in the list. The script may also be unassigned from a specific user by clicking the Unassign link in the Actions column. This link will only appear for users who already have an assigned logon script.

User list

The User list displays all users that have an established network account. Shown in this list are the User Name, Full Name, Description and associated logon script (if any).
