Dave- You can use Service security policy to enforce a startup mode on a policy, but if a user is administrator on their box, they can always override that. Bottom line is that there is nothing you can do (GP or otherwise) to prevent an administrator from doing something they want to.

How can you make the service permanently stay on even if the person wants to change it? Dave
