Guest Rahul Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I have prepared .NET 2.0 Desktop App for my college library. My college System Admin set-up the library network with Windows 2003 server & XP clients, and has handed over its responsibilities to me. I have some experience with Active Directory & Group Policies, but I'm not an Admin. I have set-up OUs & appropriate Group Policies for various clients. I am looking for help in 2 specific areas: 1) First, each client has a varying number of hard-disk partitions. Active Directory Group Policy allows me to restrict access to either A,B,C,D or all drives. Some of these clients have up-to 6-7 partitions & I need to restrict access to some of them depending upon the Login. I did not see a direct way to do it. The only solution I see are Login scripts. Is there any other way to deny access to a partition depending upon who is logging in (for drive letters such as E & F). If I need to use scripts, can someone provide me a sample script to deny access to say F: for users in OPAC organizational unit. 2) The second thing is Service. Some clients have Sql Express installed for local use. Again, I need to start-up Sql Service only if OPAC user is logging in. Is there any way other than scripts, and if no, again I would request a sample script???
Guest lforbes Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 RE: Setting FileSystem & Service Permissions on logon Hi, I can help with the drives. This can be done in Group Policy if you modify the system.adm file for the different drives. Now mine is for Hide Drives in My computer but you can also do it for the restrict drives. My instructions are here. http://www.sd61.bc.ca/windows2000/HideDrives.htm "Rahul" wrote: > I have prepared .NET 2.0 Desktop App for my college library. > My college System Admin set-up the library network with Windows 2003 server > & XP clients, and has handed over its responsibilities to me. > I have some experience with Active Directory & Group Policies, but I'm not > an Admin. > > I have set-up OUs & appropriate Group Policies for various clients.

Guest Rahul Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 RE: Setting FileSystem & Service Permissions on logon Although I haven't tried your solution yet, I feel like it would do my task!!!! Thanx a lot!!! You saved me setting up permissions for each individual drive on each individual client!!!
