RWW Restrictions ChuckT 12.07.2007 18:12:01 Hi: Is there a way to control what desktops a user who comes in through RWW can connect to? I mean is it possible to restict the list on the initial menu so that the user only sees CONNECT TO DESKTOP and then when they click the DESKTOPS shown in the list are only selected ones that we want them to see? Thanks Chuck

Re: RWW Restrictions "Russ Grover \(SBITS.Biz\)" <support[ at ]REMOVETHIS.SBITS.Biz> 12.07.2007 19:23:53 Unless the User has "LOCAL" Profile on the PC they won't be able to login to that PC. (Domain Administrators of course can login via RWW to any PC.) This means that Joe in the mail room can't login to Susan the exec PC (And Vice Versa) So even if they see all PC's they will only be able to login to their own PC ( this is by Default, of course you can customize this on each PC) Russ -- Russell Grover SBITS.Biz Microsoft Certified Small Business Specialist.

Re: RWW Restrictions "Laurin Beckhusen" <laurin[ at ]ctns.org> 12.07.2007 20:24:28 What if users use roaming profiles, or my doc redirection....? For example if I have logged in on the "x" computer with users a, b, c. Can users a, b, & c all access the "x" computer via RWW? And since only user c has logged into the "z" computer can only he access it via RWW....

Re: RWW Restrictions "Merv Porter [SBS-MVP]" <mwport[ at ]no_spam_hotmail.com> 12.07.2007 21:44:22 While the RWW list of available computers would not be affected, you can limit the user to log onto only certain computers: Server Management | Standard Management | Users | (rt click) a user account Properties | Account (tab) | Log On To... Include the workstations you want the user to have access to and also include the SBS server itself so the user can authenticate using a remote PC. (The user will not be able to "log onto" the SBS server). Of course, this will also prevent the user from logging onto all but the workstations specified, even if he is physically in the office. -- Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] ============================ "ChuckT" <ChuckT[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:45EC7820-BC57-4F04-9659-7C88935CF825[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: RWW Restrictions "Russ Grover \(SBITS.Biz\)" <support[ at ]REMOVETHIS.SBITS.Biz> 12.07.2007 23:27:57 To find out what user can Login to a PC remotely. On each PC if you go into Control Panel Select System Then TAB Remote Choose Select Remote users Button. Those mentioned will be the only ones available to remotely login. My Doc redirection works the same as it does if he/she logged in locally. Are these Roaming Profile users? Russ -- Russell Grover SBITS.Biz Microsoft Certified Small Business Specialist.

Re: RWW Restrictions ChuckT 13.07.2007 11:54:00 Thanks to everyone. It sounds like we should do the following: 1: Set up a PC (or two) to be used by remote users. 2: Put the applications on this PC that we want them to have. 3: Install only users on this PC that can log in. 4: On the SBS PDC click on each user account that we set up in step 3 and only allow them to log into these PCs. Does that sound right? Thanks again Chuck "Merv Porter [SBS-MVP]" wrote: [Quoted Text] > While the RWW list of available computers would not be affected, you can > limit the user to log onto only certain computers: > > Server Management | Standard Management | Users | (rt click) a user account > Properties | Account (tab) | Log On To... > > Include the workstations you want the user to have access to and also > include the SBS server itself so the user can authenticate using a remote > PC.
