I've created this LOGON.BAT to be as flexible as possible. Thus, it's a little bit big (3KB) but it seems to work well in my network. I haven't been able to test it under Windows XP, though.
This script will take care of those instances where a normal user logs into a Windows 2000/XP computer where KiXtart has not been installed locally. Normally, copying into the %WINDIR% folder requires administrative privileges, so the login script will not be able to do so for a regular user. Additionally, if for whatever reason the KiXtart executable cannot be found in either %WINDIR% or the NETLOGON folder, an error message is displayed and an alert is sent to the Systems Administrator.
Comment and bug reports welcome and encouraged!!
