Hi,

I am unsure as how to go about doing this. What I would
like to do is add a group from the domain down to a
Windows XP machine. Namely in the Remote Desktop Group.
I would like to create this in a file so that I can change
the name of the group. We are deploying many machines to
many different locations and would like to specify a
specfic group that can do Remote Desktop for that group.
Also would the user that runs the file on the local PC
need to have rights to pull it down from the domain or can
that be specified in the file?

I am sure that I am suppose to use the NET command but how.

Thanks,

Tony

You could do this with:
Net.exe LocalGroup "Remote Desktop Group" DOMAIN\group /ADD
Run "Net Help LocalGroup" for the syntax.

But an ordinary user won't have the rights to do this. You should explain
how you are planning on doing this in more detail. Like login scripts,
custom scripts, systems management.

You could also do this remotely using LG.EXE from
