Have you tried running the install routine using the Run As... feature in Windows 2000?
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2/13/02 3:50 PM Subject: Group Policy We have setup a group policy for workstations that have generic IDs that prevents them from doing many functions, one of which is installing/removing applications. We also block *.msi, run.exe, setup.exe, and install.exe from being executed. These systems are running Windows 2000 Professional and are part of the Active Directory domain. The policy is setup on the OUs that contain the generic IDs. I am trying to find a work-around that will enable an administrator to install an application (Oracle) while still logged in under the generic ID. Oracle appears to be profile specific. While an administrator can log in as herself/himself, install an application, log out, and then back in as the generic ID so the application can be run, Oracle and several other programs do not allow this. We use SMS to push some applications down and for self repair, but it cannot run if the ID is locked from installing applications. Can anyone assist me with this? Thank you!
