richardp - How to you prevent puopils from accessing explorer.exe

If you turn off the browser service, the pupil workstation will not be able to see the server to get things such as application and stuff.

I have locked down as much as i can as some of the shares they need. There is no way i can lock it down?

Is there anyone to stop them double clicking on the programs menu?

Hi All, I wonder if anybody can help, pupils are accessing the servers and seeing the actually servers folders/files. When they login they are double clicking on the programs located on the start menu and accessing explorer. They keep pressing up one level until thery get to network neighbourhood, where they can select the domain thyey are on and see all work stations and servers. They can access the servers and see shared folders and folders. As you understand this is a serious issue has any of you got any ideas please. TIA Faza

Is it always wait for the network at computer start-up and logon do i need to enable this is that all?

I have just tried that Colditzz and it is still doing it.

No but the strange thing why does it work sometimes and not others. Also the H;\ does not come from a script does it?

I am having a big issue when pupils are logging. We have a script that connects two network drives. Also within AD Users and Computers we have the H:\ mapped as the home drive. We have a mandatory profile setup %logonserver%\pupils. We also have a printer script that connects the appropriate printer according to the room. The big issue we are having is that some times pupils log in and everything works, they get the correct printer, network drives and home folder. Then the same pupil will login to another machine and lose the network drives or home folder, but he will login to that machine later in the day and everything will work. It is weird i have checked permissions, AD everything Hope you can help faza

When i login with a computername e257 i get the printers for e258

Yes thank you very much!

Whern i run the script now i am getting Error Line 111 Character 2 Error = Expected 'End' print.vbs

I am trying to get this printer script to work, but everytime i run it i get an error saying needs End Select. Any advice would be great!! print.txt

Come in this morning and still slow :-(. Cant think what else it could be.

Well thought i fixed it :-( restarted machine and still taking ages to load.

Thanks everyone for you help. I have resolved it, in Group policy there is a item Primary DNS Suffix within computer configuration, i just put our dn,cn,cn and restarted the workstation and it works. Once again thanks Faza

Thanks for your advice but it is still taking a conisderable long time to load. Its out locl intranet page as well. The external sites load faster (Ha Ha) I have put the site into the exceptions in the IE7.adm.

I have just tried that but still saying same thing. Detecting Proxy Settings.

I have a created a fresh new image with XP pro and IE7. When an adminstrator logs in and runs IE7 the home page comes up straight away. But when a pupil a logs in its says in the bottom left hand corner detecting proxy settings and takes roughly 30 seconds before the home page appears. I have checked the group policy and unticked "Automatically detect settings" and then ticked it but makes no difference. Any ideas would be great! Thanks Faza

Im a bit confused sorry first time used vbs. What line do i need to add gecko?

Please see attached script. When the computername is e258 i have two printers that it connects to. But when the user logs on Microsoft word says, Microsoft Office is still awaiting to communiccate with the printers do you want to wait. I select yes and the strange thing is that the two printers are there but keep getting this annoying message. Do i need to add anothetr line to the code to enable two printer to connect withjout errors. Or is there another way faza printers-final.vbs

why not full control out of interest is this for the pupils?

I have trying to bulk change the NTFS permission on the home folders for the new starters. I am using the CACLS function CACLS username /T /P username:F administrator:F But everytime i type this or run a series of these with the appropriate username all the batch file does is continously scroll down with the first line. When i use the cmd prompt i go to the location where the home folders are stored. Am i missing something ? Faza

Im not getting that error anymore but it ios still not showing under AD and limitlogin if the user is logged in.

ICTNUT This morning i have installed the latest version of .net version 2.0. The server is the logon server so it must be connecting and seeuing the server. But it is still not working.
