frustrated with xp pro

I have 10 windows XP computers. I load programs for the
users with the admin account. If the user is not logged
into the domain, they can run the program. If the user
logs into the domain, which they should, they cannot even
see the program. I have even tried promoting the user to
local admin. It works on the local machine, but when they
try to log into the domain, they cannot access the
program. I've been on this for 2 days. any help would be
appreciated.

thank you
 
You most likely have 2 accounts on each machine, local profile and domain
profile - look under documents and settings and see if you have
<profile.name> and a <profile.name.domain.name>, if so, this is what's
happening. Note, this is not an XP problem, but network setup issue, as
with a domain, you should setup the profile to require logon to the domain,
and if a laptop is involved, allow the domain profile not to log on to the
network for stand alone use.
