Hello Bob,

Thank you for your post!

I recommend to create a Global Group in active directory and add it to the
Power Users Local group on the Windows 2000 workstation. If the users exist
in Active Directory than you shoulld be able to add to the Global Group.

Please Reference Knowledgebase Article:
