removing user from domain users group doesn't help OM 06-23-2006

What I would do is to give that global group deny access this computer from
the network user right in Domain Security Policy. Then move the server that
has the share they need to access into a OU with a Group Policy linked to it
configured with the deny user right for access this computer from the
network defined but to not include that group. Then users in that group can
only access shares on that server. If the server has more than one share
give that group deny permissions for other shares on that server. It is also
possible to prevent users that logon to non domain computers to not be able
to access domain computers [other than domain controllers] that have a
require ipsec policy. If you consider ipsec be sure to read the
documentation on ipsec first and be sure to exempt domain controllers from
request/require ipsec policies by adding their IP address to a filter list
that is in a rule that has permit filter action. --- Steve
