Remote Logon

[Guest Laura]

I created a user in AD and made them a member of the "Remote Desktop Users"

and also added them into the servers remote admin tab. I ran secpol.msc and

added the user and remote desktop users group into the security policy to

allow remote logons and allow remote logon using terminal services. Now the

user can logon but as soon as I hit enter I receive a message about the user

needing administrative rights/privileges???? Does a user have to be admin??

I just want them to run a program on the server and logoff, I don't want to

give them admin rights, I gave them backup operators and account operators

because all they are doing is running a ghostcast server session.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

RE: Remote Logon

 

Did you set the Group Policy Settings? Group Policy overrides any local

settings so if you haven't set it in Group Policy then it won't work.

 

Also have you given the user the right to logon to the server locally? This

is restricted to administrators by default in Windows 2003.

 

Cheers,

Lara
