    Hi. I terminal server into a Win2K server with SP4. When I open up
    GPEDIT.msc to make changes to the GPO I get an error sayin that Access Is
    Denied. I am logged on with an Administrator account. The terminal server is
    set to Administrator mode.

    I am also having a similar problem on a WinXP Pro test computer.

    Does anyone know what the problem is and how I can fix it?
