Actually,
I did the following. I created a new account added it to the target group, with the existing permissions ( member of local power users, and remote Desktop Users) and having the right users of logon locally and Logon through terminal services ( assigned by GPO) and it worked fine. ( As long as I didn't use the /admin switch on the RDP 6.x+ connection) Z Edward E.

It is a limitation of "Remote Desktop for Administration" mode. I just found a link that answers this question. For windows 2000 & 2003, you MUST be a member of the administrators group in order to RDP into a server that has Remote Desktop for Administration enabled: "only members of the Administrators group can gain access to the server."

GPO should override local policies, so this says to me that something is not right with the GPO or the application of the GPO. Are you sure the GPO is applying successfully to the server? What does gpresult yield? Jonathan L.

I know it sounds daft, but that should crack it On 17 November 2010 14:45, Ziots, Edward <[email protected]> wrote: I have a GPO that grants the following user rights to a group Lets call this the Datacenter operators group ( and I have made them a Power user on the system) I grant the following via GPO. Right to Logon Locally, Right to Logon via Terminal Services, Right to shutdown the system. ( required by management for support reasons) I put said group in the Remote Desktop Users group on the system accordingly, and I granted the Group Full Control on the RDP connection on the server. I try and login to the server and it claims this account needs administrative rights to login to the server. I login with the account locally from the server console, no issues except it claims it cant reach its profile directory accordingly. SO what am I missing with the allowing the account to login via RDP? If I make the account an local administrator it works, but as a power user it doesn't work. Even though I can login to the server locally? Z Edward E.
