I have installed a program on the server (NT4). The issue
is that on the XP Pro desktops the program will run if
logged on as administrator but not if I log on as the
user. All user permission are set on the server. If I
click on the shortcut I get an error message saying it
cannot find the file althought if I hit find target it
does find it. If I click on the execuable I get the same
message.

Sounds as if your program needs administrative rights on
Click to expand...
the local machine in order to execute itself correctly.
You may want to try adding the "authenticated users" group
to the "administrators" group and see if that helps. This
will give all users administrative rights to the local
machine who log in successfully. Another thing you can try
is to see if you can run the program as a service and
specify the service to be associated with
the "localsystem" account.
