thanks Mark, that was a great start. i set up the batch file to run on logoff.
or the script paramaters, i have
%systemroot%\grouppolicy\users\scripts\logoff
is this correct?
i tried to use the del command in just straight dos and also checked out the
site
http://www.computerhope.com/delhlp.htm and tired their commands, but it
does not work.
are the scrip paramaters correct, or are they for something else. (i also
tried it with the scrip paramaters blank.) are there any other sites that i
could check out that you know of?
thanks,
jat
