Eric,
You really don't want your users to have 'Power User' privileges. I would
suggest you install the applications and then apply the 'compatws' security
template to the laptops. That allows users to use applications that would
not normally run unless the user was part of the Power User group and
protects your registry and other system files from people who like to
'snoop' around.
Thank You,

Subject: Power User Rights
I need to give some laptop users in my organization Power User privileges on
their PC's so that they are able to install applications and such. I added
them to the Power User group locally, but as soon as they login to the
domain, they lose all of their privileges. Anyone have any ideas what I
have to do on the server to give them this right without giving them full
administrative privileges? I am having trouble figuring out where to give
them rights - in group membership, group policy, file system?
Thanks in advance,
~Eric
