Terminal Services Standard user permission

[TopDawg]

I have a win2k server setup with Terminal services in Admin mode. I want to grant two standard users the ability to log into this machine via terminal services.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

HI.

In remote administration mode, only members of the Administrators group can log in, and you are limitted to 2 maximum sessions (including disconnected sessions that did not log off).

Good News:

I figured out how to give permissions to others than the administrators in Terminal Administration mode.

1- Go to Administrative tool, terminal services configuration
2- Open connections, and right click on RDP-TCP
3- Go to properties and add the group or user.

I tested it with a guest account and it worked.

But what kind of rites do they have? Did you try and do anything with the account that they shouldn't be able to do? Just because they can access it, doesn't meen that they only have rites for the guest account. If they only have rites that guests have, then bully for you, I thinks it's great. I'd just test it first. (Might test it myself, I have a dummy account that's got no rites other than domain user.) Thanks.
