Hi ok this was a really dumb one, I set a policy to: "deny
logon locally" to the users group in the "domain", on an
XP Pro computer. What I didn't think would happen is that
it would not allow the "Local Administrator account" to
log on. How can I change the policy with out being able to
log on to the machine?

First thanks for the response. Well I down loaded the
file but what do I do with it? I can't log on to run it.

Hi

I'm afraid those are not relevant for dg's problem, dg needs to
solve this problem from "outside" the computer (see my two links
in my other post in this thread)...

Thanks for the reply, I tried to deny the folder and it
allowed me too, though I still can not log on, any other
thoughts. By the way I have XP Pro in a domain env
