What is the best way to have one Accuterm session with limited menu options but also on some workstations to have a full menu session option.  I know to use the menu designer to control the master menu.  Can we install Accuterm in two different directories and have the two different Accuterm session icon point to different starting directories to allow the full menu session?   We need to lock down the limited menu Accuterm session so standard users can only use Accuterm as configurated to the servers we define but would like superusers and support staff the full version.   We control who can use which session type by AD group.  We use SCCM, a deployment tool that distributes software, to deploy Accuterm .

    Hi Rebecca - 

    Is your SCCM deployment saving the limited menu in the atwin80 program directory during install? I think the easiest way to restore full functionality for admins is to point them to the path of the custom menu file and ask them to delete it. That will restore the built-in (full) menu. Usually normal users do not have permission to modify files under Program Files folder so ordinary users should not be able to defeat the limited menu.

    Thanks, Pete
