Hello,

I have Windows 2000 server (Domain Controller) and Windows XP clients.

I have certain policies and logon scripts in Sysvol/Netlogon folder, issue
is users are able to browse (by \mydomain.com) the sysvol and netlogon
folders adn can see the scripts. Please help me in sorting this out.

Thanks in Advance,
Leo

I'm not sure what there is to sort out. Assuming by "see" you mean they have
the read right, this is correct behaviour; if a user's account could not
read the script it could not execute it.

If you can consider using "startup" scripts where possible. Then the user
does not need to read the script but domain computers will which you can put
into the permissions for the script file and remove authenticated users.
Startup scripts run in context of the system but can not always do user
specific tasks. --- Steve

If the login scripts are wsh hosted (i.e. vbs) then the scripting encoder
can obsfucate them so that at least the most lazy or computer illiterate
cannot read them.
