Hi, currently we dont use the Home direction portion of Hyena but I am interested in it as I believe it can save us some time setting up new hires but I had some questions regarding the usage of the template.
So currently the Logon script and Home directory location (and drive to map to) get defined in the Profile tab and that has been great but there are a few steps we have to do after (which I am hoping to automate). We have to go in and actually create the folder, set the following permissions and copy over some basic folders that everyone gets setup with.
Permissions should be
Domain admins - full
system - full
%username% - Change
but here is where it gets a little tricky,
I need the local admin account of the share to have full access as well but depending on the NTID the folder gets stored in a different location (For example A-C are in the same share but D-F are in a different share). I know I could make a different template for each but I am trying to keep it as simple as possible. I didnt know if there was anyway to have Hyena add the local admin account of whatever machine the share in question is located on.
and lastly remove any other permissions (for example domain users shouldnt be permissioned to an individuals personal drive)
Next,
Since items like the Profile path, Logon Script and drive letter are already being defined in the Profile tab is there anyway to make sure the template doesnt overwrite those options since they have already been setup? Do I just leave those fields blank in the template?
Last, and this part is not a big deal but if hyena could do it, it would be helpful. After The home directory is created and permissioned we have a few small folders that we have to copy into the home directory. Any way Hyena could handle it?
If you need more details let me know, I just dont want to give out more information than what is needed about our internal setup.
Thank you!
