Hi On a pc running windows NT, I do not have authority to change the default web page as a user, call it 'userA'. When i log on as administrator i can change administrators default home page, but how do i change 'userA' 's default home page, i see internet stuff under the profile (c:\winnt\profiles\)but not really a home page setting. Where is it? Or do i need to change the authority of userA to give them authority to change their home page? where is this setting.

For me ordinary users can change default page by themselves by clicking on the "Internet Settings" tab on the "Settings" menu in Internet Explorer. (NT 4.0) These users only has RWED (Read, Write, Execute, Delete) rights.

What happens when you attempt to set the user's home page? Is there an error generated? If so, what is it?
