>Hi All,
>
>Not being an admin .. I have a Windows server on which I am creating some user accounts. How can I arrange it so that the users account gets a certain default desktop when they log on the first time. i.e. I would like them to have the Windows XP theme by default. At the moment I am logging on as the user and setting the XP theme manually but surely there is a way to tell Windows what I want the default desktop to be?

Are you talking about:

- users logging on to the Windows server itself, i.e. getting a session on the server computer,

OR

- using a workstation and logging on to a Windows domain

Depending on what you want to do, and your version of Windows server you can get some ideas by Googling

["group policy" "xp theme"]
["group policy" "xp theme" domain]
