outlook profile on the TS

[Guest Jane]

Hi all,

 

We automate the outlook profile using outlook.exe /importprf

\\UNC\outlook.prf

through group policy logon script. So, whenever the users log on, the

outlook opens up. If we do not want outlook open automatically (ust configure

outlook profile) when users log on, is there a way to accomplish this?

 

Thank you.

IMHO, the simplest way would be to make those users who you don't want

to automatically configure part of a new group. then use the

ifmember.exe utility from the windows resource kit to check for group

membership and if they belong to it then skip over the section that of

the script that automatically configures outlook. This is assuming your

using batch commands, if your using vbscript the same thing can easily

be done with vbscript as well.
