Desktop shortcuts on Windows server 2003

[tmluke]

I use the Create Shortcut action and use the variable %DesktopNt% to give the user the choice on creating the desktop icon. On a Windows 2003 server, when they want the icon, it created three icons and none of them go to the proper link. Do you know of problems with this? We have done this on Windows server 2000, WinNt, and WinXP, and it works correctly.

Just a question... is your Windows Server 2003 set up as a domain controller?

[tmluke]

No, They are not the domain controller.

Ok well there goes my theory.

We had some customers of ours that reported multiple shortcuts being copied to the desktop but we found it was only under a domain environment. Some customers even reported that the icons show up then disappear afterwards.

Weird...
