We need to be able to lock a specific user on several laptops to take away run, My Docs, install, etc. The laptops will be in vehicles and not be connected to a Windows Active Directory Domain. They all have XP Pro. I have looked local security and gpedit.msc however those applie settings to every user on the laptop which not what we want. Any Ideas?

Even if the laptop cannot connect to the domain it will logon the host using any settings from the last logon, I'm not sure whether it will enforce the local security like this, but it is something you could test.
