Are your users having problems? yes, my users are having problems. and under windows 2008 local policy, if i go to Computer Configuration-> Windows Settings->Security Settings->Local Policies->User Rights Assignment-> and click on Change the System Time, under the Change and System Time Properties Tab the "Add User or Group" and "Remove" button is disabled. Any ideas on what I'm missing for this problem? Thank you. Quote

mmthomas Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 I don't know how complex your network/domain is, but under Administrative Tools you would open Group Policy Management if you are in a Windows domain. If your server is just a stand-alone server that is not part of a Windows domain, then the Local Security Policy will be all that you have access to. If that's the case, then the options are probably disabled because you cannot enforce client machine behavior if the clients and server are not domain members. But if you are in a Windows domain, then opening Group Policy Management gives you access to all of the policies in the domain (assuming you have permissions). If you have a big network, there could be a lot of these. You would need to check which policies apply to your server. Another way to check is to run gpresult.exe from a command line or rsop.msc from the Run box. That should tell you what policies are being applied to your server. Note that they can also be run on clients, too. Quote
