Can anyone tell me how to give a domain user admin rights to his local machine? I change the account type to ADMIN in the user/password control panel, but he still does not have full admin privs.

Thanks,
dei

You can even add the "domain Users" group on the domain to the users group Administrators on the local machine. Easiest way is to manage the system (if its 2000 workstation or XP Pro) and make it a member of the group and don't have to goto the system
