Terminal Server Permission Error

    I have a terminal server setup and configured, when logged in as the
    administrator on the domain and trying to install software from a shared
    drive I get the following error

    " Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not
    have the appropiate permissions to access the item."

    Logged in as an administrator on the domain, permissions are perfect.

    Check this FAQ:

    When users start a program, they get an error message: "Windows
    cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have
    the appropriate permissions to access the item."

    That is a great tip! I spent hours looking for the right GPO setting. I never
    would have found that on my own.
    Thanks
