The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Policy Problem

Asked by nutterx in Windows 2003 Server

Tags: group, policy, xp, problems

Hi everyone

ok i got Server 2003 installed and active directory configured.

I am having trouble with appying policies. here is what i got

I have a OU called "test" and than 2 sub OU's under that called ADMINS and USERS. i have 2 users called "user1" and "User2" ..user1 is in the ADMINS OU and user2 is in the USERS OU.

user1 is in the group "Domain Admins" and user2 is in the group "Users".

The windows XP client is configured to log onto the domain which it does just fine.

So in my both my SUB OU i have set up a linked group policy for each.

now my problem....
with my sub OU USERS i have set the group policy under windows compontents->windows installer->elevated privleges to enabled in both the user config and computer config. So when user2 logs on they should be able to install anything correct? ...but they can't :-(. So for testing if i disable windows messenger it indeed disables windows messanger from running so i guess that proves something in the group policy is working for OU USERS.

user1 has none of these problems because it is in the group "domain admins" ..if i change user2 and put in in the same group and can indeed install programs.

any ideas what is going on?...i really don't want to have to set every user that wants to be able to install apps to a "domain admin"
