Hi William. What you ask can not be done. There are no local administrators on domain
controllers as you already probably know. You can do things to initially restrict
them, but ultimately they will be able to do whatever they want. Keep in mind that
since a W2K domain controller contains a writeable copy of the Active Directory for
the whole domain , it must be physically secured. You really need to consider a
separate W2K server for file and print sharing. The folks at the
win2000.active_directory newsgroup will be able to help you out also. Chapter nine
of the Deployment Guide and the Branch Office Guide are worth reading. --- Steve
