OT - XP pro

That just keeps them from adding or deleting printers. My lovely user keeps
renaming the printer and then somehow it messes up everyone's access to it.
What Shirley said worked perfectly. They are still Power Users, but can
only print to the printers and nothing else.

Manasa,

www.fortres.com <http://www.fortres.com>

Fortres 101
Cleanslate

Both are excellent products. I've taken to using Fortres on ALL Win-2000/XP
machines except for the top 3 people for whom NO rules apply.

Locking down the machines to what you see is what you get has simplified my
life considerably. User's may not be delighted but I haven't had a revolt
yet either.
