Hi all;
Have you any idea to change user group from Administrator to user on Local Computer.
(My Local computer join Domain(AD)windows 2000 server,I would like restrict user can not install program on they computer)

Thanks.
 
You cannot adjust the default groups: administrators, power users, users...

You can edit the membership of those groups and you can enforce them with group policy. Create a policy that applies to the computer's container. Edit the computer section of group policy. Under the restricted groups, define the membership of the administrator's group to contain domain administrators (and a help desk group if you desire). Define the user's group to contain domain users.

The group policy will override the memberships on the local client computers for these groups. Unless the user belongs to the domain administrator's group (or help desk group), they will not belong to the local administrator's group.



Start, Help. You'll be surprised what's there. A+/MCP/MCSE/MCDBA
