Hi,
 
I already have installed Terminal Server under Windows 2003 Server and it's actually working well.
 
But i'd like to configure each "Domain Users" with no option to shutdown/reboot computer, AND ONLY administrators can have its to reboot without enabling/disabled the option in the gpedit.msc.
 
Is somebody can help me about it ?
 
Thanks,
 
Karel

So, esentially, you want the default user account to have the shutdown and reboot disabled?
 
I believe it is the following
 
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Policies
 
Add dword
 
NoClose = 1 (computer shutdown)
NoRun = 1 (Gets rid of Run ... handy if the user knows how to enable shutdown via the command prompt. Two ways..Either the shutdown command or rundll32 command)

Also, A list of all known policies and their registry entries. Since what the policy editor does is add entries to the registry...
