Irish Man -> Rotating Wallpaper (6/11/2008 12:03:48 PM)

Hello Guys,

Just wondering what the best method of doing this.......

My company has approached me with the request of applying wallpapers on user desktops. They would like to present a new wallpaper
daily or weekly all controlled by GPO. I do not want to provide the users with the abilty to insert their own wallpapers, or else we end up will all kinds of crap. Only company approved wallpapers should be applied.

Currently there are no wallpapers on the user desktop only a boaring blue screen which I control through a GPO. How can I create a daily rotating or weekly alternating wallpaper. Can  I use SCCM, batch file or login script ????

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers
Colin

I'm not sure if this would actually work, but if there's a GPO that will prevent users from changing their wallpaper but not actually set it, SCCM should be able to set it because it's running as local system(extra permissions).

Maybe if you have a GP enforcing a local image as the background and your script just rotates that picture in and out...
