We do this by setting up a scheduled task (as SYSTEM) which will run a
batch file from a netlogon share on one of the dc's. The batch file does
all of the stuff using windows commands.

We have something in the logon script that if you are a local admin, it
will set up that scheduled task, thus, when we set up a new PC, we log
it on as root once, and the scheduled task will forevermore do what we
want it to do as the SYSTEM user on each local box.

If you need more details I can give you example logon.bat and what we
call "root.bat" files.

Cheers

Alex
