user rights to run an .exe file

[IainM]

Hi,

Does anyone know the best way to give a user the rights to run certain
executable files but not others on their machines in a domain. By default a
user cannot run executable files.

Cheers,
Iain

Go to

http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_securityconsole.htm
this program will allow only certain programs to be run
for certain usuers. Go have a read of what it does, it's
very impressive.

The doug knox program will only work on machines that are

part of a network, when they log into a domain the profile
is sent from the server. I might be wrong here but I think
you will need access to the server and run gpedit.

Cheers Scot,

Looks quite a nifty litlle program but as you say, on the domain server
policies rule.I just want to allow some users to run a security exe file
from their memory stick that allows them to pasword protect it.

Any thoughts?

Iain
