Just add the domain user's account to the local Administrators group on
the Windows 7 machine.

Chris,

I did that, but now I see my error. The username was local on the machine
before I added him as a domain user, so he was entered twice, once as a
local user and once as a domain user. When he logged in as the domain user,
he didn't have the admin rights.

God Bless,

Mark
