software installation

[Chad McDonald <chad.mcdonald () GCSU EDU>]

We have made a very recent move towards implementing Active Directory and
have fairly effectively restricted what users can do on GC&SU clients.  We
are now being bombarded by a vocal minority who feel that they have a bona
fide need to install software on their machine.  Up to now we have been
unable to find a way to allow users to install their own software (i.e. test
banks, trial software, user-developed software) without administrative
rights.  I am sure that some of you have encountered this as well and I'm
hoping that you have found a solution.  Any assistance that you may provide
will certainly be appreciated.
