Hi all,

I need a help from any one out here! I need to display one confirmation box using windows startup script!
I need to run this script on each and every client system in my LAN!

Here is the requirement:
The script should ask the user to click yes to continue or no to exit.
If the user click yes, that should open Internet Explorer with some site , Say google.com
and after filling some forms and after closing the browser, that should bring to regular login screen which says, cntrl alt del to login!
If the user directly preses the no button, that should close the confirm box and should go to the regular windows login screen!

So here is the sequence:

1. Call the script on Windows booting ( I can do that )
2. The script Will display one Confirm box with Yes and No button!
3. If the user clicks Yes:
i. Open Internet Explorer with google.com
ii. When user closes IE, go to step 5
4. If the user presses No, go directly to step: 5
5. Show windows regular login/welcome Screen

So, If anybody knows the windows script programming ( I think, VBScript is using for that) please do reply to me! I'm waiting for ur responses!

Thanks,
Niru

Hi.

I have a partial solution to your problem. Have a look at this demo script I wrote:

Here dos.bat is a batch file and it may have any name. The contents of the batch file is nothing but the start statement with the URL you want to open. Like this:

This would run the default browser and open Google.com in it. Make sure that the batch file is in the same directory as the script file. I used a batch file only for convenience reasons, you may use any alternate method to call the start command.

Now what this script fails to do is to logout once the work with the browser is done. I am yet to figure out whether applications can be started modally from a VBS or a batch file.

how did you get it to run the script at startup?
Help Needed To Create Windows Startup Script!

I'm trying to figure out where to put the scripts to run at machine startup and at user login. In xp, I just made some directories in the "group policy" directory. I assume you did something simialer but I can't find it by searching google.

Please let me know...
