I have a Windows 2000 terminal server. I'm having trouble giving the end user access, without setting them up in the built-in Administrators group (not the domain admins group). I have given them permission through the terminal service configurations options. I would like for the users to have users access, not admin access. Does anyone have any suggestions?

There is definitely no need to set them up as admin. Can you be more specific about what error message you get when this user tries to log in? Does it say that "Interactive login" is not allowed for this user? Are you in a domain?

1.) Make sure that in the users account in Active Directory Users and computers on the Terminal Services tab that there is a check box in "Allow login to Terminal Services.)

2.) Make sure the user's domain account is a member of the Terminal Server User group on the locally Terminal Server.

Without the additional info I requested that is all I can offer at the moment.

The error that I receive is "The local policy of this system does not permit you to logon interactively". Under the users properties, I have a check in the check box to allow this user to login with terminal service.

In the local rights for users make sure that the user has the logon localy rights. It this TS is a member an Active Directory domain then you do this in Group policy other wise use the local security policy
