tokenring LAN using Optinet 2.01.  We have resources available
for the campus and resources that can be used in the library.
Our menu system is now based on a set of nested batch files.
Does anyone know a way to provide two separate menus for
a single LAN so that library users see only the resources
that they are allowed to use.  They now see everything 
and we have to constantly explain that this CD is not
available for student use.  I should comment that it
has to be solution implemented at the server level.  We can't
go to individual machines and customize them.  This may be
a FAQ, but our system administrator is away for a month and this
fell on me.  Thanks.
