Only allow certain domain users access

[green biro]

Want to reserve usage of a certain (XP Pro) PC for Management. What is the
simplest way to ensure a certain set of domain user can use the PC?

Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions.

I would create a security policy that restricts logon to that machine to a
specific set of users. You could so this as a local security policy or a
filtered GPO for just that machine. I generally favor centrally managed
solutions, so I'd stick with the GPO, but there are benefits in restricting
access even when the domain isn't available.

and/or allow loagon throught terminal services only the group you want to
allow the login.
