Eruantalince Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hi,another question, about WinXP Pro this time. For I have got a multi-user PC, which I am administrator of, I was wondering if I could prevent access to some programs by some of the users (located in UserGroups) by a logon-script or through an other form of configuration (the configuration screen?). Or is it necessary that the user has to log in as a guest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrough Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 You could create a new user group, add the appropriate users to that group, then change the permissions of the executables so that only members of that user group can run them. Or do the opposite and deny a particular group... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

un4given1 Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 No need to be patient... just do as ckrough said. But I would recommend you set the permissions on the complete directory instead of the EXE. If it's just one user do it per user, if it's more than one user then create a group and add them to it.
