The network consits of 2 domain controllers running windows 2000 server and a file server running same windws 2000 server. Before, upgrading a windows 2000 professional to XP Professional, a user could run a cetain application which has the data base on the file server because I created a security group and added the users of that application to that group and on their windows 2000 professional workstations, added the group to the local power users group and each user could run the application.
After upgrading the said workstation to XP Professional, and adding the said group to the power users, the users cant run the application, unless the domain user account is added to the local administrators group on the worksttion which is not the companys policy.
Any idea which will enable the users run the application without giving that powers.
 
Try granting power users FULL rights to that Application program folder and populate it down from there...you may get lucky.
