Outlook Deployment using GPO / MST
Is the PRF file actually getting copied to the machine during the installation process? It should be under Program Files\Microsoft Office or one of its subfolders. (I'm not at a machine where I can check.)
"Ken Cheney" wrote in message ... Logged in with local admin rights and it still does not apply. The PRF file installs fine if done manually as does the deployment of the MST. It just doesnt append the exchange mail box to the current profile.... until I add the PRF manually. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ... I've seen other issues with certain PRF settings not being applied if the user doesn't have admin rights. Can you test against a machine where the user does have admin rights? -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Ken Cheney" wrote in message ... The GPO with the MST is applied but the profile isnt. the user does not have Admin rights on the computer - does that make a difference? "Ken Cheney" wrote in message ... The adding of the PRF file from command line works fine.... I next looked at my MST file which seems also to be fine... Here it is. The fact that path is not a UNC path isnt the problem is it?
