Windows 2000 Server logon scripts... and VirtualCD


Recommended Posts

I have 26 Windows XP Pro client computers and around 100 users that need to be able to use VirtualCDs. I have the VirtualCDs stored on my Windows 2000 Fileserver.. Network edition and everything is setup correctly.. The problem is that the cd's do not automatically mount even if I mount them once using the local administrator account.. They stay mounted if I mount them and then logoff even with normal users.. However it's not practical to login and mount these cd's for 100 users even if it's just one time.. I would like to be able to create a logon script that would mount the drives automatically when a user from this group logged in.. or possibly when any user logged onto one of the 26 computers.. (so that the users would not get an error when they logged onto a computer not running VirtualCD).. If anyone can help me out with this I'd really appreciate it.

    • YouTube app is no longer compatible with several iPhones by Taras Buria Google is rolling out a new update for the YouTube app on iOS, and it is bad news for those still using an old iPhone. Starting with version 20.22.1, the latest release in the App Store, YouTube for iPhone now requires iOS 16 and newer. Previously, the app required a device with iOS 15 and newer. The new hardware requirement makes several iPhones incompatible with the latest version of the YouTube app. Those include the iPhone 6S / 6S Plus, iPhone 7 / 7 Plus, and the original iPhone SE. The seventh-generation iPod touch is also no longer compatible. On the iPad side, the update kicks out the second-generation iPad Air and the fourth-generation iPad mini. Although old iPhones can no longer install YouTube version 20.22.1 and newer, old versions continue working just fine. However, going forward, users will not receive new features and improvements. Also, at some point in the future, the app will stop working altogether. Another workaround is to use the web version of the app, but that also provides a limited experience compared to the up-to-date client. Google is not the only service that kicks out old and now unsupported Apple devices. Recently, WhatsApp developers dropped iPhones that cannot run iOS 15.1 or newer. The news is clearly a bummer for those who are still using their old iPhones, which, to Apple's credit, have a solid lifespan (as long as you are happy with the battery life). However, it is also worth keeping in mind that the iPhone 6S series was released almost a decade ago. Having ten years of support is impressive, but it is clearly time to move on. Perhaps my friend with his day-one iPhone 7 Black can finally consider buying something less ancient.
    • Guys have already appeared saying that Windows 11 ruined their lives, stole their bank password, killed their dog, kidnapped their mother and that's why they will never install Windows 11 again.
    • I think they start to use AI in Robots but in very early stage. I think in less than 20 years we will see these movies in real life
