I'm working on a Win2K, Active Directory network. I've made a copy of an old
NT Server login script which has the following command:

     net time /set /yes

This command works just fine in the 98 and NT workstation environments;
however, when I try to use it in the Win2K environment, with a Win2KPro
workstation, I get the error:

     Error 1314, Cannot Set System Clock

I get this error when attempting to log in as a user from the User or
Everyone local groups. This error does not appear when I log in from an
Administrator or Power User

I have attempted to modify the Default Domain Policy on the server at start
| programs | admin tools | Domain Security Policies| Local Policies | User
Rights Assignment | Change System Time to include more groups; the
workstation effective policies do not show the change.

I have also attempted to set the workstation local security policy at start
| programs | admin tools | LSP | User Rights Assignment | Change System Time
to include Everyone and Users; however the effective policy does not show
these groups, and I do not wich to modify the LSP on 100 workstations.

I think there is a set of settings in the AD Domain or Group Policy that I
need to alter, but which ones?

In what I believe is a related detail, workstation users that are not
Administrators or Power Users cannot open the systray clock/calander.
