Logon scripts overview

A system administrator can use logon scripts to assign tasks that will be automatically performed whenever a user logs on to a particular computer system. These scripts can use system environment variables, and can also call other scripts or executable programs. Logon scripts are frequently used to map network drives, start background processes, and initialize user environment variables.
