I've had an email from a user concerning running XP as an unprivileged user...

The last time I attempted this, I also had issues and resorted to running 
as an administrator...

Is this typical?  Anyone had any success running AG as an unprivileged user??

Thanks,

Todd

   Oh yes, another issue I am having that maybe you can shed light on:
I tried to run AG as an unprivileged Windows XP user.  They seem to have
dispensed with "Power Users" in the user manager control panel.
I am trying to set it so that we can have people log in as a user that
is not going to spread virii all over the machine or mess up the
standard configuration.  Right now I have an admin user that can
connect to the VenueServer, but as a non-privileged user, "ddrive" they
can not connect.  Do you have any idea what might be happening?  I can
start ServiceManager and it can offer the Audio and Video services
to a node running on the other machine, but VenueClient can not connect
to the VenueServer itself.

   It does not seem to be a windows firewall issue though...
