Group policy question

[NickS]

Hello All,
My win2000 stations are not having specific ocx files updated (which we push from one of our servers). They are copied locally and than registered. It will work if i add the users to Local Admin group, but i don't want to do that. They are presently part of Power Users, but this doesn't work. I was wondering if i can use Group Policy (local) to elevate their permissions for such files.
These files are being written to winnt\system32.

Any ideas much appreciated
Nick

I don't know if this is exactly what you need to answer your question but this article may help shed some light.

I don't know if you run a local command on the remote machine to register these new .ocx files. But only a local admin can do this. What you could do is run the program with the Runas switch to run that program as local admin.

Hope thats some help
