Workstation Administrator
in [Windows Servers]
|
From: Mark A. Sam on 10 May 2010 14:57 Hello, An XP workstation gives the ability to assign a standard domain user, Administrator rights on the workstation. This doesn't seem to be the case with a Windows 7 Pro machine. I thought assigning the user as the manager of the machine in the Active User profile on the server (Windows Server 2003 Business) but that didn't do it. Is there a way to assign him Administrator privledges on the local machine? Thank you for any help and God Bless, Mark A. Sam

It happens at the client level. You need to give the domain username admin rights on the local machine.
From: Meinolf Weber [MVP-DS] on 11 May 2010 01:48 Hello Mark, You have to use restricted groups, see Florian blog about: http://www.frickelsoft.net/blog/?p=13 Another way is coming with Group policy preferences, which requires at least a Windows Vista/Windows server 2008 or higher OS machine to manage them. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731972.aspx Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > Hello, > > An XP workstation gives the ability to assign a standard domain user, > Administrator rights on the workstation.

From: Mark A. Sam on 11 May 2010 14:30 Bill, I did give the user Administrator rights on the local machine. I apologize for not being clear. I removed the user from the domain.
