I have some standalone XP Pro systems that I am trying to lock down for

use as Citrix clients. I am using gpedit.msc. (Not connected\setup to

domain)

I have gotten some items to work the way I think they should (only
user) but some others like "prohibit access to control panel" applies
to local admins too which I dont want to occur.


User Config | Admin templates | Control Pannel | prohibit


Control Panel is just one of many that I am noticing apply to local
admin as well as users


Can I set local policies so that the it only affects users and not
local admins?


Thanks in advance for your help

See the following (even though it says Win2k it is applicable to XP):

Thanks.
This going to take a while to test all the diffrent lockdowns combos I
want to apply for just 1 user

If this works I'll be happy.


Now I hope I can concentrate long enough to try it.
