Re: User permissions - Server 2003

I will take this step by step kind sir, I know it must be frustrating for
someone that has solid experience in this field.

I create a user named user1 in A.D.

On the A.D. machine I create the shared folder Home and give Everyone full
permissions.

I go to the properties of user1 and enter \\server\home\%username% in the
Home folder box. I leave the Z: in place over to the left of the Home folder
entry box.

I also check to make sure Domain Users is only listed in Member Of.

I go to a computer sitting in another location like the warehouse. Using
that machine in the warehouse I logon to the domain using the user1 account.

I open My Network Places... I then click on Entire Network ..I then open
Microsoft Windows Network ... I then open the Domain that is showing. I now
see all of the computer icons (28 of them) that belong to the Domain.

I double click each computer ... they open showing the default shares
Printers and Faxes and Scheduled Tasks ... if there are other shares on that
machine they will show as well.

What I desire is to have the Access Denied message popup when users try and
open other machines that are listed in the domain.

Again thank you for your kind help.
