Changing IP From Standard User
Hello Everyone,
I have been googling this problem for a while now, and I cannot see an anwser online.
I teach CCNA to students, the only thing they need to do is to change the IP address of the machine to match the various IP addresses during the course.
Ideally I will lock down the other parts of the OS using Group Policy Objects so they cannot disrupt the running of the OS.
One of the steps I come accross was to add the user to the 'Network Configuration Operators' group. However the UAC asks for a password when I change IP address, and then disallows the user from progressing.
The PC's have no password assigned while I am in the testng phase (this may affect UAC).
All the PC's are on a peer-to-peer so no AD or server to deal with.
I am running Windows 7 Pro 32-Bit on all the machines.
Such a simple problem is making me lose my hair!
