How to set user policy for a stand alone w2k pro pc?

[Hyena]

Hello,

I am working on a kiosk that is a stand alone pc and
trying to set group policy to disable lot of windows
functionality for the users except administrator. I found
a way to change to do this as per this knowledge base
article

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;293655

Following the above article I can't run mmc or gpedit.mmc
using administrator login to reset all the policies
applied. Is there a way to do this effectively without
changing any policy for the administrator?

To summarize the question.. Is there a way to set user
policy for a stand alone Win2k pro pc based on the
user/group login?

Many thanks for your help.

You might try to give the user/group that you do not want the policy to apply to
deny permissions to the \winnt\system32\Group Policy\users folder. Another way
is to manage policy remotely while logged onto another network computer with
admin credentials on the target machine and use the mmc Group Policy - other
computer snapin. --- Steve
