Logoff script is waiting too long when computer is disconnected from AD-network

[Guest ricmik]

Hello!

 

Is it possible to set how long it should take before the logoff script

times out?

When portable computers are taken out of their offices, logoff takes

about 10 minutes (waiting for logoff script).

 

I don't want to change the timeout value for the logon script.. only

the logoff script.

 

Any ideas?

Let's have a look at the logoff script!

I think the problem is that the computer can't find the server where

the script resides.

Does windows cache scripts?

 

I'll insert the scripts here anyway..

 

The script is separated in two parts - the batchfile which is

specified by policy (logoff.bat):

@ECHO OFF

cscript //Nologo %LOGONSERVER%\NETLOGON

\setADcomputerDescriptionLogOff.vbs

 

The script that is executed from logoff.bat

(setADcomputerDescriptionLogOff.vbs):

Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")

 

Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & objSysInfo.UserName)

Set objComputer = GetObject("LDAP://" & objSysInfo.ComputerName)

 

strMessage = objUser.CN & " " & objUser.physicalDeliveryOfficeName &

" logged off " & Now

 

objComputer.Description = strMessage

objComputer.SetInfo
