Re: Granting specific rights on client computers

Hi Cris,

under "Active Directory Users and Computers" there are no computers listet
under domain-name.local/computers but under
domain-name.local/MyBusiness/Computers/SBSComputers. May this be a problem?

The information on the workstations is correct, too.

Thanks,

Michael
