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!

"local policy does not allow you to login interactively"

Zone: Windows Network Security Questions

Tags: interactively, allow, policy, local, logon

we're used to RDP'ing into workstations as the currently logged in users and do admin tasks as needed. then logging out and the user logging back in. recently we decided to switch all workstations' user permissions from local admin to user only. as we started doing this we've noticed that now when we attempt to RDP as the user to test any changes we made as an rdp'ed admin, we get the above mentioned error.

we have a domain with a few win2k advanced servers (one being the AD DC) as well as 2 2003 servers. all workstations are xp.

i have looked around a bit and found 2 hints pointing at domain policies so i did make the following changes on the AD server
1.
Active Directory Users and Computers
Right click your Domain (usually my-company.prv format)
Slide down to and chose Properties
Click the third tab "Group Policy"
Click the Default Domain Policy and hit "Edit" from the buttons below.
Go to Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Security Settings/User Rights Assingments/ and add "Domain Users" and "Domain Admins" (We added user and administrator to blank list), and any other group that needs to logon locally, which will enable those groups to logon.
2.
Administrative Tools>Domain Controller Security Policy>Security Settings>Local Policies>User Rights Assignment>Policy>Log on Locally>Add>Browse, click the appropriate group, and then click Add. (added users to existing list)

unfortunately we still get the same error on the workstation when trying to RDP into them as a user after the previous rdp session was an admin

any further help or pointing in the proper direction would be greatly appreciated.
