Permissions for a local group are used to give that local group access to
folders, print shares, and user rights assignments. For a folder you right
click the folder that you want to restrict, select properties - security,
add the local group to the folder with the permissions you want that local
group [thus users nested in it] to have assuming you are using ntfs
permissions. Usually for a standardized desktop you use mandatory roaming
profiles [changes to profiles will not be saved at logoff] and/or Group
Policy to implement it. If you are referring to the desktop screen itself
that the user sees when he logs on, you can restrict a users permissions to
their desktop folder under documents and settings so that the user has only
read/list/execute permissions. This can be done via a logon script using the
cacls or xcacls command using the %username% variable in a Group Policy
logon script. You can also create default profiles that will be used when a
user first logs on to get their user profile. Keep in mind that the "all
users" profile will be merged with any users profile. You may also want to
post in one of the Microsoft setup_deployment newsgroups. --- Steve
