I just installed Palm software on a W2K workstation in a W2K Domain. When logged into the domain, only a "Domain Admin." can install the software, and then, only that user can use the application. I get an invalid configuration error if any other user tries. How do you install the software, while logged onto the network, so that other network users can use it? How can I change the "domain user's" policy so that he can install the application and use it himself?
I can't believe you have to be a Domain Admin to install and use applications on a workstation that is logged into the Domain.
Thanks for any help with this.

It seems ridiculous to me too. Certainly not very user friendly. You may be able to allow the user to install software by permitting him/her to "make changes to the desktop" like adding application icons. It might work but a more definitive answer will probably follow.

I finally found on the Palm website, you have to grant the user administrator rights, install the software under the user account, then change the user rights back to an ordinary user. If you have more than one user accessing the same computer,you have to reinstall the software for each user this way.
