Default MS Outlook auto configure at user logon(Domain)

It want to have the outlook to be configured automatically thorough any
logon script so that it will avoid manually configuring outlook user by user.
Generally users change there systems on daily basis so i would like to know
whethere there is any script which will configure the outlook at logon
without configuring manually.

MS office: Office 2003
Exchange : Exchange 2003

The script should be in such a way that it should use the NT ID and
configure the outlook.

If there is any script please let me know.

Default MS Outlook auto configure at user logon(Domain)

Microsoft uses text files with a .prf extension and a highly structured format to provide information to OUtlook that enables Outlook to create or modify a mail profile. You can create such .prf files with the Custom Installation Wizard or Custom Maintenance Wizard tools in the Office Resource Kit. For more details, including a variety of .prf deployment methods, read the excellent white paper "Configuring Outlook Profiles by Using a PRF File" at http://office.microsoft.com/search/r...60 I&respos=3

The page at http://www.slipstick.com/exs/olroam.htm includes information on other profile tools and resources.
