[Samba] allowing users to change system time

[Ian Clancy]

Stu,
Thank you for your incredibly quick response. What you describle below
works great, thanks very much. Now i could be barking up the wrong tree
but does anybody know if it would be possible to  place this setting
somehow into NTConfig.POL so this setting could be changed on all users
PC's as they log in ?.
Ian

ian,

your problem is probably with the local computer policy on the w2k
boxes.

on the win2k box, go to start, run, gpedit.msc, Local Computer Policy,
Computer Configuration, Windows Settings, Securty Settings, Local
Policies,
User Rights Assignments, Change the System Time.  Add users or
authenticated
users to this key.

there may be an easier way, but works for me.
