Re: couldn't change the date on machine



It is permissions on the workstation. Do not give a user elevated
permissions on your server. They can delete files and folders that
they were not able to before. Log in to the workstation as
administrator to set the time format as he wants it. Then log back
out. I do not want users to be administrators of their workstation if
possible,

Hi,

I was wondering if i can get some help here. I got a user who came to me
saying that the computer he's logged in showed date in a different order. It
started with the month then day then year. What he wanted was dd/mm/yyyy.

So i went to control panel, date and time. I got nothing but a message
saying "you don't have a proper privilege to change the date/time". So i was
wondering if this is to do with the user or machine.

Then, i checked on other computers with his login credential and they all
shows the same date order namely mm/dd/yyyy. I think it's to do with the user.

But how do i help him to change the date then since he's believed not to
have proper privilege to do so.

Then, i thought it might be to do with the user permission set on the server
SBS 2003. I changed his current i.e. mobile user to power user. This didn't
work either.
I haven't tried to change from power user to administrators. I'll try later.

But just wonder if i'm on the right track here.

Thank you in advance
.
