I change my desktop setting by the registery, like :

; This is just a small part of the kix script
$X=WRITEVALUE ("SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\SHELL FOLDERS" ,"PERSONAL",$DOCAFDDIR,"REG_SZ")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\USER SHELL FOLDERS","PERSONAL",$DOCAFDDIR,"REG_SZ")
$X=ADDKEY ("SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}","",$DOCICNAME,"REG_SZ")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}","INFOTIP",$DOCICTTIP,"REG_SZ")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}","INFOTIP",$DOCICTTIP,"REG_SZ")

; Settings for 'My computer'
$X=WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}","INFOTIP","VERKEN UW MAPPEN EN BESTANDEN","REG_SZ")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}","INFOTIP","VERKEN UW MAPPEN EN BESTANDEN","REG_SZ")
$X=ADDKEY ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}","",$SSERVER +" "+@USERID+" ","REG_SZ")
$X=WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\CONTROL PANEL\DESKTOP" ,"PAINTDESKTOPVERSION",1,"REG_DWORD")

I have configured in my AD on the profile tab, that this script must start when the user logs on to the computer or terminal server. In the kix script I get first a part for both, then only for Terminal Server, then only for computers.

Changes like renaming 'my computer' in the name of the current terminal server, need a refresh of the desktop.
