I am assuming this is not a domain controller or domain member? If that is correct
you can try to connect to that computer from a remote computer on the lan. One way
would be to use psexec from SysInternals to get a command prompt on your remote
computer screen for the locked out computer using " psexec \\lockedoutcomputer
cmd.exe " . The run the secedit command as shown in the KB link below and append "
/areas user_rights " to the end of the command to reset just user rights assignments.

Otherwise try using ntrights from the Resource Kit to remotely configure the user
right for logon locally and/or deny logon locally depending on what he configured to
reverse the bad policy. --- Steve

Steven,
Thanks for the info. It allowed access to the server to
repair the group policies.
Thanks again for your help.
