Hi,
Having a rather large problem here, i can log onto everycomputer in my domain (named CLASS (its a school i work in)) with my admin user and password however when i try to log onto a standalone computet it wont let me in at all, is there any way around this? I tried administrator instead of admin as user but my password remains the same as far as i know. I need to access the machine as a standalone because the childeren in my school are doing a GNVQ ICT course and must not be on an already network configured computer, i.e they set it up in standalone mode. I would prefer not to let them on our £4000 server!
Also when adding a new user to the admin group in poledit and using active directory i come across the same problem, domain admin but not local admin
Is there any way the kids at my school can access the poledit programs in start > programs > administrator programs area, these are by default hidden however using insert picuture in word they are accessing the admin start menu then renaming the file and running it i thinik. This is only a theory because as usual they are Stubborn. I have seen about them using autoexec.bat to reload a windows logon box without the domain selector then gaining themseleves local admin priviages (perheaps how i have been locked out)
They have also found a way of accessing c:\ using a new shortcut or web toolbar, this poses a risk as far as i am concerned because they can then acces winnt system 32 directory and run command.com which is giving them full admin privilages in the dos prompt mode. s there any thing else they can do through this to give them such privilages domain wide
Right once you have finsihed reading all of that it would be nice for a reply !
Thanks
Dan
P.S i would rather not use anything which accesses the NTFS partition on the W2k Machines because the data held on these disks is paramount and i can already access c.
Machines Are
W2k Pro
Pentium 3
Running through server also win 2k and running most hotfixes and service packs. The main program they are trying to access is the classlink monitoring program, known as Remote Learning tutor, then causing hell with peoples work and any logged on user including several members of our staff who have expericend screen blanks ( which the program does also) and then having there privlages exploited because they later find that their data has found its way onto the local u:\ (where data is sotred)
Hope there is enough info if you need more just post
