RE: CIS Security template

["Smith, Ricky D." <RICKY.D.SMITH () saic com>]

Simon,

I haven't had any problems with my laptop with the Win2KproGold security
template installed.  Most of the security settings in the template won't
affect the operation of software that is built for Win2K.  

My advice is to install the template on a test machine and then test any
suspect applications.  This should let you know if there are any problems
before you deploy it on production systems.

Has anybody run into any problems using Win2000 Pro when they have
installed/run the CIS Win2kProGold_R1.2 security template?

The PC's would be used by students studying anything from a basic secretary
course to graphic design to in some cases, MCSE students.

Thanks
Simon
