administrator account locked by policy

[Mike]

After a reboot on our Win2K terminal server the
Administrator account is locked down by a group policy
that was created for other users. The Administrator
account is not under any of the other organizational units
we created for other users, with a policy we created and
assigned to the units.

Where do we go to see or change what policies are applied
to the default created accounts?

To see which policies are affecting a particular user, use the
Resultant set of policies.
Probably, you have defined some policy for Domain Users, and those
affect Administrators as well. You can solve this problem by going to
the Permissions tab of each policy and make sure that Administrators
have "Deny" for the right to "Apply this policy".
