| Hi
|
| For testing purpose I have changed the Administrator membership of a 
Win2000
| Server to add Web Applications and Web Anonymous Users groups.
| After rebooting the server, when I try to logon with the Administrator
| account (the password is accepted), I can see the Loading seetings screen
| and a short time after I see the Saving user settings screen and then I 
have
| the Loggon screen again.
|
| I've tried to logon with another user account to remove the Web 
Applications
| and Web Anonymous Users groups for the Administrator but I'm not able to 
run
| the Run As command to logon as the Administrator.
|
| Any idea on how I can solve this problem?
|
| Regards
