If you are looking to configure Windows security settings, installing
Windows XP Professional will save you some time and headache. Home

I am not able to enable the local users and groups snap-in in safe

group I belong to which is Administrators to Sudoers by pressing
windows logo + r and then I type in control userpasswords2 and then I
click on my user name and then I click on properties next under the
group Membership is where I change it.
but once you log back in you won't be able to change it back the only
way you can is by booting in safe mode and then logging in as
Administrator.
could someone please give me an example of how to configure a user in
the xml file.
