Hi All,
I am applying Group Policies in our office in Windows 2003 Domain. All the clients are xp sp2.
Actually i want to restrict the users by using group policies.We have different departments like developers,office administrators, etc... The issue is i want to customize start menu like for office administrators can see only ms-office,adobe reader,messenger in the "all programs" menu. But i installed Firefox, Nero, vlc media player , php and Winzip in all systems. If a developer login to the system then he should see all the applications in "all programs" menu and if a office administrator login to the system then it should show only ms-office,adobe reader and messenger.
I enabled
"User Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Start menu and task bar >> Remove common program groups from Start menu option"
then all the applications are removed from all programs menu. but i want to restrict some applications only according to the user.

Please anyone give me some idea about this issue...

Thank u...

to realize that you don't use linux to setup AD.

Maybe if he were to switch to Novell.....
