Hello!
I wonder if you know how to make a logon script to ebox to work with windows xp machines so that I can set a wallpaper in my users sessions. This is a simple way to advertise some activities going on in my school.
Can this be done? The wallpaper image should be saved somewhere in the server.
Can you help me?

Absolutely! I use kixtart to change registry settings on boot via the netlogon all the time. If you know the registry keys you want to change, I'll help you produce the scripts.
I assume it's something like HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop Wallpaper
So the kixstart line would be something like:
WRITEVALUE("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop", "Wallpaper","somepicture.bmp","REG_SZ")
Look at samba guide chapter 10 there are some very good examples of using kixtart:
