Re: User Profile Question

This is likely because of filesystem permissions on their machines,
perhaps registy entry permissions also, which grant to Administrators
but not to Users. The time honored approach when one needs to
discover precisely where permissions need to be adjusted is to use
the regmon and filemon tools from Sysinternals (now part of MS)

Hi,
I'm asking your kind help to understand and solve this problem:

I've been managing a Windows 2003 Server Domain with 30 users (with remote
profiles) for few months.
Some of these users are Administrators of their own computer.
Now I would set their local rights as "Power Users" so they will be not
able to install any unwanted software anymore.
After changed the local user rights from Administrator to Power Users the
user cannot open Outlook, or, for example, cannot personalize the desktop
choosing Classic style, and so on..
No group policy or domain policy are active....

Thank you in advance for your help...

Luca
