Default Re: Application access on TS machine


Application vendors that specify that user must be administrators
are just lazy. It means that they don't bother to tell you exactly
*which* user rights are necessary to run the application.
So you'll have to find out yourself.

Your best option is to download FileMon and RegMon from
http://www.sysinternals.com/. Run them as administrator on the TS,
start a TS session as a normal user and try to run the
application.

FileMon and RegMon will show you all "access denied" errors
that occur, so that you can give your users the necessary
permissions on a file-to file or Registry subkey basis.

Default Re: Application access on TS machine

the last time I used those tools and tried doing it that way for a
frustrating app, I had 4 hours into it. Sorry....but $250 over 4 hours
anyday! Also, since this app linked to several others and generated
reports, it is sometimes just not worth the time.
