Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help me, I have a user with a laptop (Win 2000) which I would like to allow them a Dial up connection when away from the building. However, When I log in as Administrator and set all the properties of IE to Dial up when network connection is not present - Everything works OK.

When I log in as the User, The settings have'nt changed and all the boxes are greyed out etc. (User as Power User)

So for the purposes of making this work, I made the user a part of the Administrator's group and logged back in, But it still would'nt let me alter anything.

I even formatted the drive (Drastic, I know) and re-installed Win 2K.. Same..

Firstly, Is this a permission issue for that user?
Or Is there something I have overlooked?

Any Help would be appreciated...!!!!!

Thanks in Advance,

John.
