MMC objects not visible in Windows 2000

Goto the SMS Home Page

 
When I grant a Windows 2000 global group access to an item in the SMS Admin console, when users connect they can't see any objects. For example, they can see the "Collections" MMC object but nothing underneath it.

This problem is documented in 266712 "Security Based on Global Groups Fails in Windows 2000 Domains." If you grant users permissions to the objects on an individual basis then you don't get the problem. The Q article details several scenarios where this problem can occur and workarounds to these.
