GPO Logon script not running

$

Hi,

I am having a very strange issue with our GPO. I am trying to make a new GPO that will preform the following for all staff:

1. Apply folder redirection for Desktop and My Documents

2. Apply a logon script that will map drives.

At this time, the GPO does run with success for the My Documents and Desktop redirection. What is strange is that there are no entries in the event log at all, or reasons why the Logon script does not seem to be running.. 

Here is what I have tried so far...

  • I made sure that the GPO is applied to the correct group / OU.
  • I have made sure that the user account I am testing with can run the scripts locally via running the script from the UNC IE: \\<SERVER>\sysvol\OrmedHQ.com\Policies\{2F7AB314-A470-4685-874C-1CD4AF72A8F3}\User\Scripts\Logon\<SCRIPT>.bat
  • I have success when I reboot the system, and the policy is applied for all of the other parts of the GPO policy, IE folder Redirection and other items we are locking down, IE start / add/remove options etc.

Step taken so far:

  • I have read the articles online for this issue, and I have tried this, but it did not work. HOTFIX: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2550944
  • I have applied gpupdate and gpupdate /force from both the server, and the desktop I am testing with
  • I have made sure that I can access the sysvol share and run the script as the local users.
  • We are running Windows 8 Pro
  • Server is Windows 2008 R2

Here is a sample of the script as well, as you can see, very basic:

@ECHO OFF
net use /delete P:
net use /delete Q:
net use /delete R:
net use /delete I:
NET USE P: \\server\folder1 /PERSISTENT:YES
NET USE Q: \\server\folder2 /PERSISTENT:YES
NET USE R: \\server\folder3 /PERSISTENT:YES
NET USE I: "\\server\folder4\Folder with space in name" /PERSISTENT:YES

Anything you can suggest here, would be great. I am really stumped as to why they are not running. -- I have also tried to map the drives by using:

User Configuration > Preferences > Windows Settings > Drive Maps 

And this did not work / do anything either. -- No errors in the event log for the above either.

If someone could suggest a better way of doing this simple task, or has any idea where I could look to repair this way. That would be ideal.
