It’s not using any “supported” APIs– it’s just banging on the GPT.INI file. This may work but is definitely “unsupported”, too.

This script just modifies the "%SystemRoot%\system32\GroupPolicy\gpt.ini". You also need to run the script from the http://www.jhouseconsulting.com/2008/08/06/running-logoff-scripts-in-novell-environments-36 post. That script modifies the "%SystemRoot%\system32\GroupPolicy\User\Scripts\scripts.ini". I was planning on merging both scripts, and is why there is a strLogonScript variable not in use in this script. I did this two years ago for one customer, and have had no need to revisit it since. Running both scripts will give you the results you want. Cheers, Jeremy. Hi Manel,

You have an string "strLogonScript" but is not used anywhere in the script. OK, you set the different settings in "gpt.ini" but I don't understand how the computer knows that the logoff script is "%SystemRoot%\SaveQAT.cmd". Can you explain this? Thanks. Hello,
