I have a 2003 Terminal server that I want to have set up so that Domain Admins can use the clipboard and driving mapping/redirection feature and all other Domain Users can't. I have looked into both global and local group policies but only see the Terminal Server redirection options in the local group policy and I am not sure how or if different local policies can be assigned to different domain users.
If anyone has any ideas on how to do this, I would really appreciate the help.
Thanks!!
 
I believe the Clip Board Policy is a Computer Policy and not a user Policy which would mean you can only disable it globally for an entire Terminal Server be it a domain or local group policy.

If in a domain evironment drive mapping can be told to process or not on the environment tab for their user in Active Directory. There map also be a way to do this with Groups/OUs I'd have to check on that.

If you don't have real smart users you can just create and save a custom RDP Connection that just maps what you want. Of course a savy user will just bypass this and create their own RDP Connection and map everything.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on this.

Out of curiosity why is drive/clipboard mapping an issue in your environment?
