I am getting a trial by fire introduction to system administration and the network has apparently been pieced together for years. Fortunately it's a small network. We are running an NT domain controller and terminal services on a win2k advanced server application server. We are NOT running AD on the 2k server. I need to lock out shutting down the system from a remote client because users keep shutting down the system since its in the start button on what looks like their machine (they don't get the remote connection idea, and they shouldn't have to to work in the retail store) I have read how do do this in AD, but we are not using that. How do I turn this off?

You should be able to disable remote access under the
users configuration.
