We have a W2K machine that we can't run anything using installer on. The
local Administrator and every other possible user do not have priviliges on
the C:\WINNT\Installer directory. Is there any way we can change this -
perhaps a diskette boot that has the REM or ADDTRIB commands on it?

The article is a little deceptive. At step 7 create a new database.
