Hello, Can the OCSETUP fulfill your request? You can have a batch file as follows and set it to the computer startup script for Windows Vista client. start /w ocsetup.exe TelnetClient /quiet /norestart Please note that the component name parameter (TelnetClient) is case-sensitive.

Do we need to remove this startup script after "x" days? how does ocsetup respond when the script is run every morning? Will this hurt performance each reboot?
