Default How to Control the VSS (Previous Version) Client In SP2 via a GPO


Hello,

I've have the need to disable the "restore" option in the Windows XP
Previous Version (VSS) client tab. I can't risk the chance of just any user
restoring a entire shared folder to an older version. The "view" and "copy"
options are OK to leave enabled.

Can this be done via an XP ADM file in a GPO? I hope so as MS saw it fit to
integrate the VSS client in XP with the roll out of SP2. We're talking 400
users, and its either scale back the feature in the VSS cient, or turn off
VSS all together on our W2K3 servers. Better to go to tape than to run the
risk of an unsuspecting user trashing a day's worth of work for many others.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks
