  1. You may need to either:

    a) Make the Limited User a Power User which has slightly more priviledges (use Control userpasswords2 to change it)

    B) Use Folder security permissions to allow everyone to RW to the game directory. For XP Home, use CACLS.EXE to change folder permissions.

    c) Install the game in a folder other than C:\Program Files and give full control rights for all users.

     

     

     


  2. To join a domain you just need 'Account Operator' rights and that should give 'Create Computer Objects' priviledges and new objects are created in the Computers containter by default.

     

    I suggest you turn on Auditing on the Domain Controllers of 'Audit Account Management' in the GPO and then you can see who is hacking your system in the Event Viewer!

     


  3. Are the clients in a Domain? If in a domain, the script must be located in Netlogon directory on the domain controller! If using 9x/NT clients, then you must specify the script in the user's profile to run it.

     

    Is the script a batch file or a vbs file. If vbs, do they have the latest version of Windows Scripting Host (5.6)?

     


  4. Sounds like you need Active Directory installed (or joined to an existing Domain (if there is one), then you can use Group Policy to apply standard desktop settings for the classroom!

     

    Help features on Windows and Microsoft's Knowledge Base websites are a good starting place.

  5. The standard cmd prompt string is:

    prompt $p$g

     

    You can change it to whatever you like using

    prompt <text>

     

    where text is string character or special $ codes (see prompt /? to see what they are.

     

    A simple prompt $g or a prompt $$ may do what you require without the extra directory names etc.

     


  6. There is no need to login. You can use the scheduler to automatically 'login' and run a backup and you can specify which user to use as well. See Schedule under My Computer (or Control Panels) or use the AT.EXE command to schedule jobs.
