Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Group Policy and MMC

Only administrators can use Group Policy to restrict or allow access to specific snap-ins or restrict the ability of a user or group to use author mode in MMC. This applies in a network where Group Policy has been configured.

To set policies for users of a particular computer, you must be an administrator for that computer or have equivalent rights. To set policies for an organizational unit in a domain, you must be an administrator for that domain or have equivalent rights. You cannot use MMC to create computer policies; you can only create user policies.
