Creating A Local Profile For Users  Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!

 Some people may be reluctant to give to many users administrative access to the server.  However, you may need to give some users access to run and configure programs which require this level of access. There is a solution the can provide users with the level of access they need, while at the same time restricting them to the other tools available to the administrator.  To provide this, you must create an local account on the server, and set up a profile for that account which has most access to the machine removed, but still has administrative privileges

1. Run “Administrative Tools” -> “User Manager For Domains.”

2. Select “User”

3. Select “New User” from the menu.

4.Create the user account. Click "Add"

5. Select “Groups”

6. Add to Local Administrators..

8.Log into server with the new account.

9. Select “Start Menu”->

“Administrative Tools”->

“System Policy Editor”.

10. Click on “File” then select “Open Registry”.

11. Select the settings you want under “Local User “ then save.

12.  Delete any desktop icons you don’t want. Add the MysaNiTy shortcut to the desktop.

* you can experiment with the settings, by changing a few at a time, then logging on and off as different users, until you are comfortable with a particular set.

13. Log off, then log on again as Administrator.                        

14. Launch Explorer.  Go to \Winnt\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs. Here you will find reference to all the programs available for any local accounts to the server. If you don’t want this new account to have access to any of these tools, but you do want the administrator's account to use the items, copy them to \Winnt\Profiles\name of administrator account\Start Menu\Programs.  Then, remove the ones you do not want from “All Users”.
