We just purchased a Helpdesk software package and installed it on an NT 4.0 server. I created a logon script (start \\helpdesk\trackit\audit32.exe) and saved it in winnt\system32\repl\import\scripts on the PDC so that when users logs on, the audit application will launch. However, only those with administrator rights will have the script execute. The other users logon attempt will not execute the script. On top of that, the PDC will not even let them logon to the domain. I think I am missing something. Any ideas? Thanks.

You will have to make the users that need access to that script admin on the local machine because if it is installing something then NT will look for them to have local admin rights at the very least. This will be true for any type of software push through a login script. As far as the PDC not letting them logon onto the domain do you know what error message they are recieving?
