How to remove the Shut Down command on Terminal Server

[Guest]

Hi everybody.

We have a Terminal Server (W2K - Domain Controller) on which we wish to
remove the Shut Down command, so that Terminal users cannot shut down the
Terminal Server.

We have made a Group Policy that removes the Shut Down command and adds the
Log Off command to the start menu.

The problem with this is, that all the users that resides in the OU on which
we have implied the Group Policy, are also affected by the Group Policy on
their Local PC's, since they are members of our domain... So now they cannot
even shut down their own computers.

How can we remove the shut down command on the Terminal Server, without
affecting the users local PC's ???

I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Kindly Regards

Thomas Holme Larsen
