File Rollout

by johnhiltz . Updated 19 years, 3 months ago

Hello all and thanks for looking.

– I need to overwrite a file on each workstation. – All servers are Windows 2003 SP1.
– All workstations are Windows XP SP2.
– The user does not have modify/write permission on the folder.

I have tried putting a command in a batch file and using it as a logon script but the user is denied.

I have tried putting the logon script in a GPO with no success.

The obvious answer is to write a VBS that changes the permissions, copies the file, and then restores the permissions but I am not a scripter by any means.

Any thoughts are appreciated.
