A logon script can be assigned to all users within a domain using Group Policy. Once you have placed the logon script in the %systemroot% \ SYSVOL \ sysvol \ [Domain Name] \ Policies \ [GUID] \ User \ Scripts \ Logon directory, you can edit the default domain policy as outlined below.

1. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and select Active Directory Users and Computers.

2. Right click your domain and select Properties.
3. Select Open from the Group Policy tab.
4. Double click the Default Domain Policy.
5. Right click the Default Domain Policy and select Edit.
6. Expand User Configuration | Windows Settings | Scripts (Logon/Logoff).
7. Double click Logon.
8. Click the Add button.
9. Type in the name of the script and Click OK.
10. Click OK.

Now when users logon on to the domain, the settings within the logon script will automatically be applied before their desktop appears.
