| how can i prevent employees from changing their timecards by manipulating the | internal computer timeclock? This shouln't be done on their respective PCs in the first place if it pulls the user's PC time! Use a centralized system that YOU control. An example would be a web page on an Intranet server that grabs the Intranet server's time, not the user's time. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp

And the excuse that you are pretending to be a Windows admin or support person is what? You need to be smarter than your employees, or pay someone that is smarter.

More information needed... Just 'how' is this timecard thing setup? One computer and they all 'punch in' there? or each one on their own computer? Or what? Because you are using a pseudo-server and not a real server operating system with a domain set up, you'll need to change permissions on all the workstations individually. If the workstations are running XP Pro, you can do this by setting a Group Policy to prevent users from changing system settings such as time. Your users cannot have administrative privileges of course. Use the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) to do this. Questions about Group Policy can be asked in this newsgroup: microsoft.public.windows.group_policy If the workstations are running XP Home, you won't have gpedit available to you and will need to use something like Steady State or even Faronics' Deep Freeze. Steady State - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...s/default.mspx If you have more than 7-8 workstations, a better solution is to replace the XP Pro on the pseudo-server with a real server operating system such as Small Business Server, create an Active Directory domain, and manage everything centrally.
