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...
