    specific software and desktop for local user??

    Hi
    For example

    1.windows server 2008 with 10 users in AD (Library Dept)
    2.10 client PC of windows 7 so that local user can access resources

    i want when these 10 users log-in on client PC then they can see only 2 applications on desktop ( MS word and IE ) thats all nothing else. also they should not be allowed to see any thing in "start"taskbar except LOG-OFF.

    how can i do this? do i have to go on each and every client pc and change policies or can i do it all from server???

    thanks

    Yes, you can creat a public domain account for computers, as you know, local account can be controlled by domain group policy. You certainly can do it by using local group policy, but it's time consuming job and assign specific software, just follow the below articles:
