Hi Guys.
I have setup Windows 2000 w/terminal services, And have successfully added uses and remote desktop connection. Everything is working fine. But, I need to know how to restrict what programs the remote user's see. I know abot the run command in the properties of the Active directory, but I need the user to use 2 or more programs, but not see ones that I dont want them to see. I looked for Poledit for groups but have not found it, Have went through Group policies, but cannot find anything to restrict what programs they can see. I will need a detailed explaination. Do not suggest linux, or citrix, this is not an option.

Thanks Guys

do you want to restrict programs on the start menu or through explorer?

If it's through the start menu, you can create a custom profile and edit all users start menu.

just an idea.

I choose to reject this because it was a vague answer, please explain to me as " I am an idiot " lmao, Yes through the start menu, Desktop, any way they can sneak in and run programs, I am able to do this when not in AD 2000, but need to know how todo it, " How to create a custom profile, and add user's?? " Thanks

I run some users with a terminal services client that starts only on one program at a time. You can add multiple icons to their standard desktop. This way they do not get the desktop at all, instead they will have two program icons on their desktop.It will appear just like they were not connecting to TS at all. You can even add the icon for the program.
