Assuming you have access to the server over the network as an administrator
as evidenced by your ability to access and administrative share such as C$
then NTRights should work. Keep in mind that the privilege you specify with
NTRights is case sensitive which means that SeInteractiveLogonRight and
SeDenyInteractiveLogonRight need to be typed exactly as shown. Also the
server may need to be rebooted after changing user rights. I would try
giving everyone +r SeInteractiveLogonRight and then grant everyone, users,
authenticated users, and administrators -r SeInteractiveLogonRight as any
user that is included in deny logon user right will not be allowed to logon
even if they have allow user right. If none of that helps you could also try
using psexec from SysInternals/Microsoft to access the command prompt on the
locked out server and use secedit to reset user rights back to default
defined levels being sure to add areas / user_rights to the end of the
command as shown in the KB article below. If you don't specify /areas the
command will disable many critical services on Windows 2003.

Does anyone know how to reset the policy settings back to the default out
of
the box settings? We had a "power user" decide he needed to update his
stand
alone server with member server updates. Now everyone is locked out and
unable to log in. I can map a drive to the box and connect to the box w/
mmc. I've ran ntrights to add LogonRights, but it still fails. It cycles
between to errors, Policy doesn't allow you to log on locally and Not in
the
Allow Remote Login.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
seh
