coomberoadtech

Eliot here from Brighton, tend to be one of those silly people who read a lot and doesn't contribute too much, however I intend to do much more contributing. I a part time tech in a Mid sized Primary School. thanks to the community for some fantastic knowledge over the years, and i hope it continues.

I use an environment variable to set the location of each computer, i apply that using policy make to add the reg entry for the environment variable to each OU in which i put the computers in each location. you can add an environment variable at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment. i call mine location and then give each location a number. then in my logon scripts i poll for the location number using an IF statement like this: if env("location") = "1" then objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server\printer1" objNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\server\printer1" objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\server\printer2" elseif env("location") = "2" then ... and so on. id say thats a pretty easy and fool proof way to do it. anyways im new to this forum but i hope that helps in some small way.
