We are in the process of replacing 50 machines on an Active Directory Domain
where all users are in the user account class. The new machines all have the
power settings set to go into suspend mode after 15 minutes. Is there any
way to make a change that will apply to all users without having to reimage
the machine?
 
Yes give everyone write access to the registry keys:
USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg
and
MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Controls Folder\PowerCfg
Then use a logon script. You can use the command powercfg.exe to do what
you need. You might want to try to ask a question like this on
microsoft.public.windows.group_policy or
microsoft.public.windows.server.active_directory next time.
