Dave000 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hi, We have a user that is unable to open IIS manager on Windows 2003. He's part of the Administrators group - I understand that he won't get full admin access. Here's the problem with IIS. User is connected via RDP to the server. Opens IIS manager and gets this error message: THe snap-in below, referenced in this document has been restricted by policy. Contact your administrator for details. Internet information Services (IIS) Manager. Is there a way to fix this? Is there something that I can deactivate in the GPO? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LogicalApex MVC Posted March 25, 2013 MVC Share Posted March 25, 2013 What makes you think someone in the Administrator's group isn't a full admin? How else would they become a full admin? Also, I'd look through the user's groups and check the GPO objects set for them. If he's in a restricted group and a non-restricted group (like Admins) the restrictive one will apply.

Dave000 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hi, I have no access to the domain controller, I won't be able to edit the GPO from there. I went to the GPO Editor on the server but couldn't find restricted group. Can this be done from the server? Thanks for your time, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave000 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 What I don't understand is that they are both members of the same group , but one is unable to open IIS. I tried with my regular account and added myself to the same group and I'm also having trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
