Remote Desktop Users - Security Group

[Bob]

Hi,

I find that users who are members of Domain Users and Remote Desktop Users
can establish a connection to the Windows 2003 Server just fine.

But when this same user attempts to connect to their workstation, the
Windows XP TS will not allow the connection. If I add Domain Admin and
Administrators to the user, they can then also connect the Windows XP TS.

How can I allow a user to connect to their own workstation without making
them an Administrator?

Thanks!

Right-click on My Computer and go into Manage.
Select the "Remote" tab and check the Allow users to connect remotely to
this computer. Then click the "Select Remote Users" and choose who can
connect to the XP machine. I don't believe they have to be local admins if
you do this.
