This article was previously published under Q271650

SUMMARY

In the Help files for Microsoft Windows 2000 Server and Microsoft Advanced Server, the "Setting up replication of logon scripts" topic refers to the Directory Replicator service and gives information about placing logon scripts into an export directory for replication.

This topic refers to Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 technology that is updated for Microsoft Windows 2000. In Windows 2000, replication of logon scripts is handled by File Replication Service (FRS), a multi-threaded, multi-master replication engine. In Windows 2000, logon scripts are stored in the Sysvol folder which is replicated automatically to all domain controllers by FRS.
