    Hello everyone!

    I've got to configure our network to enable a 3rd party access to our SBS server through RWW. However I don't want to make them a user of the domain admin security group. I've had a look at making them 'server operators' and 'remote operators' and configured them to be able to have access to remote control the server (through system properties) but whenever I test this account logging into RWW I do not get the option to connect to the server, only the client pcs.

    Connecting as the domain administrator to RWW does give me the option to connect to the SBS.

    Is there a local computer security setting, or default domain controller security setting that I should be investigating, or is it just impossible for non-domain admins to connect to SBS through RWW.

    Thanks!

    Did you try to add them to the remote desktop users group?

    Hi Isaac,

    Yes, I had them as members of : Remote desktop users, server operators, remote operators, domain users and remote web workplace users.

    I have also explictly defined them as a Remote desktop user within  the System Properties->Remote->Select Remote Users but still no joy.
