Hi guys/gals hope someone can help me...
We are using Group policy to tie down student XP machines and mandatory profiles in a Windows 2000 Server environment. We cannot get the built-in XP CD burning feature to work (at all) as a student. Group policy is not restricting the CD burning feature (I have disabled disabling it!).
When a student logs on to a machine the Send To CD option is missing and they cannot copy the files to the drive either. Empty folders can be created within the CD but that is it. It seems like the student does not have permissions to the temporary staging area for files (presumably the local profile). Is there any way of changing this for all users of a machine? Has anyone seen this problem and know a fix for it?
I can provide more info if needed...
(the CD writer is fine - I can burn to it with no GP and restrictions applied with my account).
Cheers
Kirk
