I have a WIN2K Professional (SP4) machine as w/s. I can't login to local as Standard User, I can do it as Administrator group. Error: The user has not been granted the request logon type at this computer.

I looked at Local Securety Policy w/s), I gues there is fine. But don't know where look at W2Adv server.

How can solved this problem?

TIA

First try disabling the local User & Computer policies to make sure it is not local.
If that does not help you need to check the group policies set on the server (domain controller).
On the server open users & computers mmc console,
check at all levels if any policy is being applied or if the default policy has been changed. Look for restrictions on the particular pc under computers.
Group Policies can get quit complicated, let me know if you need any more help.
Good Luck!

I'm created new account and turn on at Local Computer Policy Properties:
+Disable Computer Configuration setting
+Disable User Configuration setting
In any way I can't logon.
When I'm tied to join to DC,
The local policy of this system does notpermit you to logon interactively.

Do you have the local Administrator rights?
You need them to edit local security policy.
Try logging on to the PC locally (with a local account).

Here is additinal info:
Securety setting->Local Policies->User Rights Assigment

Logon on locally:

You are looking only at the local security policy.
Open Start> Run> mmc
In the Management console File> open>
and browse to c:\windows(or winnt)\system32
and open gpedit.msc
If you right click on policies for local computer
you can disable User & Computer policies.
If this does not help you probably have domain level policies in effect.

I reinstall W2Prof and found out it problem exist if w/s joined to DC, if w/s is in a workgroup there no problem to logon localy.

Sorry it took so long to talk again.
Is the (or should it be) WS on a company/organizations LAN (with server controlling network resources)?
Is Yes, then by joining a Workgroup will not allow you to access network wide resources. You will at he most be able to connect to shares on other workstations.
Keep in touch!
