1 - NAV Corporate Edition has an option to show or not show symbol in
status tray. Use the Symantec Control Panel to make sure it is enabled
(I tend to make these wide choices by applying to the server so that it
propogates to workstations.

2 - Administators is a local group / Domain Admins is the domain group.
Don't know how you are doing the user group management, backend sam,
version of Samba etc. Generally, you would add the users to the specific
groups but if you want a particular user to belong to a computers
Administrators or Power Users group, that is a local setting on each
machine.

3 - Don't know about logoff scripts except as group policy - see how-to
on group policy editing.
