Ok, I am about to jump off the roof :)

We have upgraded to AutoCAD 2005 and use roaming profiles.
We are in the switching our profiles from Novell Zenworks
to Windows Domain. Now, for a long story. The Zenworks
sets users up as Power Users and everything is honky-dory.
Originally, the Windows profiles were setup as just Users
so AutoCAD could not register its filetypes. I added
Domain Users to the Power Users group. Now, the Windows
profiles still will not register the AutoCAD filetypes.
I have installed SP1 for AutoCAD to no avail. I have even
added the individual user to the Power Users group and
still get nadda. If I add Domain Users to the Administrators
group, the filetypes get registered. But that is not a route
I want to go. I also know that the Power User setting is
working because the user can change the Power Options where
they couldn't as a regular user. Oh, and the machines are
running Windows XP Pro SP2 and the Domain Controllers are
Windows 2000.

AutoCAD works fine otherwise. However, I need those filetypes
to be registered for our main interface program.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Patrick Jones
