| | VB scripting for machine Startup and GPO information Here is problem trying to figure out. I have a script that runs at machine start up that we set in the Domain level GPO. Set another script in an ou level that may change the setting that was set in the domain level gpo. We would like to be able to see if and when this happens using the event log to monitor this. I have added the few lines to create a log entry in the script but the problem now is that even log doesnt say which GPO the script is running from. I need a function that will determine the GPO that the script is running from. Thanks Wirrel |

Much simpler would be to simply write a GPO description string to the log file, as suggested. -- Richard Mueller MVP Directory Services Hilltop Lab - http://www.rlmueller.net -- |
