Dear tableman,

If you have a guest account , I donot think guest can change the name..

DO you want that in administrator account.. I donot think that is possible unless you use third party tools or some kind of policy

Thanks,

If you open up your Local Security Policy and go to the following.

Security Settings - Local Policies - User Rights Assignment

You will see one called "Change the System Time" and you can restrict who has the right to change it or not.

Note that this is just for the local machine. If you want this for all machines then you are going to have to do the similar with a Group Policy Object attached to the Domain OU or by manipulating the Default Domain Policy.
Well I meant to say if you have guest account then they cannot change time and date

Thanks,
Sunray

Here you can set who is allowed to change the time.

I did it in windows XP but it wasnt what I expected...

is there a way to do the same in windows 98 SE?
You may be able to do it with Poledit.exe

Can you get your hands on the WIndows 98 Resource Kit CD. Poledit.exe is on the CD.
