I am trying to research how to change the settings for all users when
they log into their machine, I just need some ideas or suggestions on
where to go to look, or how to go about doing this. Thanks,
Elise

Your post came through 3 times. If you're new to usenet, know that it
typically takes a minute or two for a post to be available on your own
local news server.
Second, can you be more specific about what settings you're wanting to
change then they log in, what operating systems we're talking about,
and what about your question brought you into a security newsgroup
rather than one specific to the target OS? Right now your question
as stated is unanswerable.
Best Regards,

Um, for starters, mind telling us what OS they are going to be logging
into? If the answer is some variety of Windoze, is there a domain
invloved? If so, just use group policies - that is what they are for!

Although your question is quite vague (doesn't even mention an OS!), one
or both of /etc/profile or /etc/csh.login is probably what you want,
though it's entirely possible that you have something else in mind and
want to look at things like rc files for specific programs or
permissions on files or kernel variables etc. Who knows? I'm just
guessing..
Maybe http://aplawrence.com/Unixart/startup.html and
http://aplawrence.com/Detective/shbash.html might be of interest..

Which operating system? What do you want to happen?

Irony has to be marked as clear as possible. Please use asterisks
AND underlines AND <irony>-tags to make that clear - and don't forget,
that closing </irony>-tags are needed to compensate any sarcasm.
