Office 2000 user permissions

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.terminalserver.applications (More info?)

Server 2003. Installed Office 2000. Runs fine as an administrator under
TS. Login as a domain user only. I get

"Only administrators have permission to add, remove or configure server
software during a Terminal Services remote session. If you want to install
or configure software on the server, contact your network administator"

I can make that user a local administrator and it works fine. I get this
message just starting any of the office products - Word, Outlook etc. Then
remove them from the local administrator's group and it doesn't work any
more.

I don't want to run this person(s) as an administrator. What are my
options. Any advice is welcome.


Thanks,


Randy Wells

Did you install Office 2000 with the transform file, as described
here:

Basically yes. I went to a command prompt and used change user / install
and then / execute. I used the Transforms=TermSrver.mst. One thing I'm
not sure of is where do I go to check and see if I am in "Application Server
mode"?

Thanks again,

Randy

If you installed TS, you are. TS on 2003 implies Application
Server mode.

Check in TS Configuration - Server settings - licensing

Ok, went back to the notes and reinstalled. Everything is working well.
The only thing I saw that I might have done wrong is I used the "Custom"
button rather than the "Install" button. I didn't change any setting but I
wanted to see which compents were selected. Anyway, its working.

Thanks,

Randy
