Couldn't agree more Chris.
We have a legacy app built for NT and when I arrived the solution which had
to be adhered to was the same: needed to be Local admins (on a NT4 TSE,
MF1.8!!) so the users had the ability to shutdown the server! (No reg
hacking had been done) Now we're running on 2k and MF XP FR3 and the app is
fine, I just had to find the keys as you suggest and then it was a doddle.
They're now all happy users the way they should be :)
Cheers
Dan

Personally I'd have to say even power users is way too much. The best
way is to use the tools at www.sysinternals.com to determine the exact
permissions, but giving domain users write permission to Program Files
and WINNT + Full control of HKLM\Software will handle 95% of all issues,
with far less security risk.
