I just got hired (part time) at my university's IT department. We take care of few of the university's computers (some computer labs and the atheltics department computers); one of my cowerkers was asking me about being able to change the date and time in XP (bottom right corner in the task bar) while not in the administrator account.
All the computers that we take care of are ran in restricted accounts, and only we have access to them as administrators (I hope I am making sense so far). So one of our clients just wants to know how he is able to change the time on his computer in the office (and he does not have rights as an administrator). What can I do about that? I am hoping that there is a setting that I can change while under the administrator account that would allow restricted accounts to be able to do so.
Also, same question regarding defragmenting. I was telling one of the clients to defrag the harddrive, and he replied by saying that an message popped up saying that only administrators are allowed to do so.
Does anyone have any clues as to how to allow these two settings for restricted accounts? If I am not clear enough, let me know. Thanks in advance.
