[MiKTeX] User Rights on XP

[Ruediger W. <rue...@un...>]

Dear MiKTeXers,

I have recently installed a shared MiKTeX environment on a WinXP
Professional machine. However, as soon as users with only restricted rights
(i.e. not administrative rights) want to use MiKTeX, the creation of format
files, metafont and other programs fail. Am I doing something wrong or do
all user need administrative rights on a XP machine?

Thanks for any help and wishing you all a Happy New Year
