Assigning the Logon Script
Desktop Authority User Management settings are configured on client computers when a user logs on to the machine. During the logon process, the user is authenticated by a Domain Controller. Desktop Authority is launched by a logon script that is specified in Active Directory for the user. Desktop Authority’s logon script is SLOGIC.bat. This logon script can be assigned to users in Active Directory within the Desktop Authority Manager.
The Assign Script dialog can be found within the Deployment Settings tab. Go to Deployment Settings > Client Deployment > Assign Script.
Once on the Assign Script object you must locate one or more users to whom the logon script will be assigned. You may enter a search term to find a user1, and/or choose the Domain or an OU and click on the Find User button. Look through the returned list of users to locate the ones who will have the script assigned to them. Select the user(s) by clicking the checkbox to the left of the User Name2. Once all necessary users are selected, click the Assign script button. You will see the SLOGIC script get assigned to the selected user(s) in the Logon Script column.

Note: The Active Directory script assignment is performed on a single Domain Controller, the same as when a script is assigned within Active Directory. This change will be replicated to all other Domain controllers by NTFRS. |
