my network has a windows 2000 server, which is the domain
controller and 33 windows professional computers. all
servers are members of the same domain. all professional
machines has visual studio installed. there are two user
groups. vbuser and vcuser. memebers of the vbuser groups
cannot add any components in VB. but if these group is
given administrator rights they can do the same. what can
i do to resolve this problem without giving administrator
rights.
 
It's 11pm here and I don't have a Win2K Pro to look at. However, the
solution to your problem resides in the Local Security Policies ->User
Rights Assignment settings.

Or, to do it domain-wide, it would be in the Default Domain Policy GPO -->
Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings - >Local Policies -> User rights
Assignment.

I think the Rights you are looking for says something like "install drivers"
or "install devices". I'm not sure what it really says, but this is usually
reserved for the Admins group. So, add the vbuser group to the list. Wait
about 20 minutes or so, and test from a client.
