isHi
All of our users are not local administrators on our SBS2k3 network but
thenthis the way that it should be?
Usually I configure a new user, temporarily making it a domain admin,
scriptsrevoke the privileges before letting the user loose.
Ideally I would like to be able to install any programs using logon
or by assigning applications to computers on the server but by notreducing
security. Currently the new user gets the message - you must be amember of
the local administrators.... on boot when I assign applications.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
The use of the SBS Client Deployment tools requires users to be local administrators, at least for any time that applications are actually being deployed.
Since I refuse to allow users to be local administrators, I tend not to use those tools, and use things like GPO to assign applications, combined with remote installation of individual applications that aren't quickly GPO-compatible.
Adding a new machine to a LAN, and watching Office, Adobe Reader and the like self-installing before a user even logs on is pretty cool.
