Hi All Just a brief query. At my work we have about 150 users on a W2k domain(s). The vast majority of machines are Win XP Pro with the remainder being Windows 2000. I have in the past had to make the users local admins due to some of the applications we have to run (before we created the Domain). This came with the usual problems of software being installed illicitly etc so I have created several group policy objects for AD and have made everyone power users. My question?? How can I enable users to Defragment their own hard drives as power users? (is it possible through GP?) Any suggestions would be gratefully received Thanks in Advance Andrew Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Computer Forensics Training at the InfoSec Institute.
