Newbie question on User Priveleges

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



We've recently stood up SBS2003 in a small and standard configuration. One
SBS server, 5 PCs all running XP Pro SP2. I used only standard user
templates and issued only standard privileges (standard, mobile, pwer, etc.)

The problem: I installed a local application and supporting database
(Access) on one of the clients using the SBS2003 admin account. The
application required the admin acct. install the app on the client.

Now when the user is logged in with his regualr domain credentials he gets
an error that the machine / account doesn't have rights to the folder (on his
local machine) where the database resides. That's a problem. When I give
the user administrator privileges (bad idea) it works.

I could put the database in a shared folder on the server but I'd rather
leave it on the client. Is there an easy way to give a user full read/write
rights to all resources on his local machine?

Thanks -- TJC
