If you log in you will be a Windows 2000 standard user. Some applications need to run as poweruser. How can I configure samba to log in certain users as powerusers? Volker

If you make them a member of the domain group(Note: Not local group) "Power Users", it should take care of it. Here, regardless of the person we make the user of a the computer a local administrator of their computer. We can trust most of our users, and this prevents them from calling us when the cannot install something they need. -----Original Message----- From: Volker Schmitt [mailto:Volker.Schmitt@medizin.uni-ulm.de] Sent: Wednesday, July 31, 2002 5:23 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] how to become poweruser?

I have yet to find any apps that won't run in this mode. What apps are you having trouble with? Simon

Not sure why they designed it this way..
I think AutoCAD needs Power User.
