I would like to restrict a user who will terminal in from
home so that they cannot see the local drives of the
server.
However, if I make this change to their group plicy they
are not able to see their local drives when they are in
the office and logged onto their desktop.
Is there a way that a policy can be applied only when
they terminal in?
 
These group policy settings are per machine and NOT per session.
Unfortunately, there is no per session policy for this in windows
today.

how about a GP restricting the local drives for an OU
containg the treminal server. will then only apply when
connected to it.
 
No I don't think this will fix the problem.
The issue is that on one computer for one user, you want to have it
both ways - drives hidden and drives displayed. With loopback
processing, to my understanding, you can still only apply policy per
machine or per user.

Wouldn't loopback processing of the policy fix this?

it isn;t that I want one computer to have it too ways for
a user. just that whatever policy i set applies to their
local XP client machine as well and they need to be able
to see the c drive of their XP client
 
Then I take it back. Vera understood much better than I and proposed
the proper solution.
