What is the command line to restrict users from RIGHT CLICK My Computer and/or My Network place Icons on a W2K server?

Another word is that if a user RIGHT CLICK My Computer, it should display as follow...

Restriction:
This Operation has beencancelled due to restriction in effect on this computer.

Thanks,

it's not a dos-command
If you go to administrative tools, local security policy, you can define your restrictions on the whole domain per groups or per users.

in dos prompt, type "mmc"
click "console"
click "Add/Remove Snap-in"
Click "ADD"
select " Group Policy"
Local System, click finish and then close and "ok"
select "User Configuration"

Play around and u will find alot of interesting thing of the policy and what u want there.

Consider the following policies in either Local Group Policy or higher.
Note: Local policy is least precedent in group policy inheritance, any configured policy higher (OU, DOMAIN, SITE) will override it.

GROUP POLICY / USER CONFIGURATION / ADMINISTRATIVE TEMPLATES / WINDOWS COMPONENTS / WINDOWS EXPLORER:
- Disable Windows Explorer default context menu
- Prevent access to drives from my computer

Also note that if you are assigning this policy on a Win2k Server you may need to filter the policy from affecting the administrators group.
