Hi Chris, Can't you add the domain user to the Power Users group on the local machine? Assuming the machine is part of the domain, log in as local Administrator and under Users/Groups add the domain users to the Power Users group.

Everything works great at this stage. No I have to integrate a Point of Sale system. The POS system runs on Win98 keyboard-less terminals and a Win2K workstation server, which shares the data and runs a service to synchronize the data (otherwise I would have used a samba share) Since the Win98 terminals cannot login, I cannot run this system under the domain. However, users on the domain workstations need to be able to run the POS applications to do inventory control etc. I tried to give them access by creating accounts on the POS server, and they got access, but when they run the inventory application, I get -2147220499: An Error occurred in clsRegistry.key[PropertyLet],rsNewValue=Software\FastechSoftware\Databas e. Message: Can't write I suspect the problem is that the domain users do not have the privileges required to write to the registry, when I create the user locally on the machine everything is fine, and the inventory program works. How can I give the domain user the same privileges as a power user on the local machine?
