No idea, but perhaps calling a batch file which will copy the file local and
execute from there?

I'm not sure either, but i can't get anything to work, not even executing a
batch file. I tried that first, figured maybe the login script wouldn't let
.exe files run or something...

Patrick,

The S: drive is mapping to \\gvdhd01\data\share without problem ?

What if you try it using the ip address of the server - #\\<server
ip>\data\share\tech\grc\grdcrop.exe

i hadn't tried the IP address, but not sure if that would do any different.
The reason is that the admin user has in the login script to execue
\\gvdhd01\sys\public\nal.exe and it works with no problem. I even tried the
same grcdrop.exe file on the admin user and nothing.

I'lll try some more later and the IP to see if that will work.
