I am setting up a Terminal Services server for an outside
office and they want to be able to change a GPO (set at
their OU)so that the users logging on are VERY restricted.
So how do I

1. Prevent users from saving anything to the desktop?

Try using a mandatory roamin profile. Anything stored to
the desktop will be removed at logoff. Alternatively, you
could redirect the desktop to a secure location, then use
NTFS permissions to lock down that location so no one can
write to it.
2. Change everyone's My Documents to default to a Netware
server and their username? ie h:\username

You can do this through group policies. Look
under "Folder Redirection"
3. Prevent them from deleting anything to the recyle bin?

Thanks for anyone that can help !

You should be able to lock down the recycle bin by right
clicking on it.
