Small network with Win2k Pro for the server(98&2k clients), is there any way to restrict access to users by time periods the way you can with NT/2k server?

Yes. Put the users a a group if you have not done so. Using Active Directory, set up Group Policy and Resist log in times.

Good Luck.

Answer one would work if you could run Active Directory on a W2K Pro network.

Anyway, I'm not aware of any basic solution you could implement. Active Directory would be your best bet, but to invest that much money in a new server and the OS would be ridiculous to limit logon times.

My advice is hit technet.com, and see if there are any special tips or tricks you can implement. Other than that, I'd think you'd have to do some registry.pol implementations, and like I said, I don't think the Local Security Policy available to the W2K Pro machines is going to accomplish what you are looking for.

Hope this helps.

Mike
