Hi, I am a computer lab technician at Gonzaga University. I manage 150 computers all using winXP sp2 in a lab setting. We are trying to use a microsoft product called winexit.exe. I have installed the new version for XP. We are on https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/a41eac63-9505-49b9-983b-1438fe5eeac6/winexit-help?forum=winserverDS an active directory system here. We use to have no problem when our lab computers were running Win2000, and our users were all in the administrators group. Now we have tightened up security by placing all our users in the power users group. Also, we used to set our winexit.exe screen saver settings logged on as administrator then copy our administrator profile over our default http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/36406-45-problems-winexit-power-users user profile. When we try to rely on the default user profile now to initiate winexit.exe, nothing happens. So we have gone to trying to use the group policy settings in active directory. We have had a minor success with that. As long as an administrator is logged on, winexit works properly. But when someone in the power users group is logged on, winexit fails when it attempts to log them off. An error message appears that says: Error encountered while creating registry key. Make sure you have Set Value and Create Subkey permissions. Once we click "OK" on that, the log off continues properly. I have tried adding the power users group to all the main registry keys and editing the permissions to include those permissions, but it still happens. I am open to having any kind of auto log off that will work consistently with new profiles on an active directory, WinXP sp2 system. Can anyone help me? -- Rob "Eddies in the space/time continuum" Ford Prefect More about : problems winexit exe power users Anonymous 25 August 2005 01:19:20 Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)
