access to "manage auditing and security log"

Guest

I have many PC's running Win XP that connect to a AD domain with W2K3
servers. Most run the Microsoft updates just fine, but one PC was telling me
that I didn't have permission to install updates. This occured under either
local or domain admin accounts. I looked in "local security settings" and
determined that the only permissions to "manage auditing and security log"
were for a group called "domain\Exchange Enterprise Servers." I was not
allowed to add or change this setting. I worked around the problem by adding
the domain admins to the "exchange enterprise servers" group in my domain.
Now I can run the updates just fine on this PC. However, I'd really like to
get the administrators group to have "manage auditing and security log"
permissions. I'm worried that if I ever remove this computer from the
domain, no one will be able to install updates.

Any suggestions?
