If you don't have fine enough control with Windows security groups,
write and publish a wrapper script (written in whatever you like: I use
Kixtart) for the app instead of the app itself. The wrapper app would
launch the app if the user wasn't in it's list of "never run the app for
this user no matter what their group permissions say" users. For all
other users, it would launch the app as normal.
 
You can do some other useful things with wrapper scripts too, like
display customized welcome messages: "Notice: This application will be
unavailable beginning at 3:00 AM for server maintenance" or even prevent
anyone running the app: "This application is unavailable due to
month-end processing. Try again after 7:00 PM". It beats mucking about
in the CMC.

Subject: [THIN] Published App Groups



         
                Is there any way to explicitly deny a group running a
published
                app on MF XP like you can deny in access NTFS?
