| 116497 | 2003-01-25 12:14:00 | In Win2k Pro it was easy to set up which programs users had access too. In WinXP Pro I am faced with only two options, Administrator and Limited. Administrator is too much control for them and Limited is not enough control. Can I give a person certain permission over a particular program? |

You can setup your users and put them into any standard group: Administartors, Backup Operators, Guests, network Configuration Operators, Power users, Remote Desktop users, Replicator, Users and HelpServicesGroup, OR any group that you wish to add and setup. Now if you also run the MMC snapin Local Security Policy then you can set the security objects however you want/need. These 'features' are the same as Win2K with Group Policy Objects etc. There is information in the Help & Support option. Cheers, Babe. :-) |

| 116500 | 2003-01-26 03:50:00 | Kame, Another point ... if you want to point finer granularity of security on files and folders and you are using the NTFS filesystem, then do not use Simple File Sharing. Turn it off. Cheers, Babe. |
