Hi,

In our domain, we are connected around 100 PCs. except for a user (myadmin),
we have given all other users as domain users power only.

However if any user require admin rights for their PCs we give admin rights
to their user name in that pc through the myadmin user only.

Since some of the users are changing their pcs frequently whenever they ask
admin rights to their PCs we are going to their location and giving admin
rights. We couldn't able to connect their pcs remotely through Dameware
Remote control since their user id is not even in power user group in that
local machine since their are logging to that pc with their ID for the first
time.

So, my question is, is there any way is there so that the user itself add
their user name in any one of the localgroup in that pc ?

Any help highly appreciated.

Regards
Chandra.

I hope that you have domain admins in the local administrators group. In this
way you can connect through computer management and add desired user to
appropriate group.

Right click my computer and select manage.
In the left pane click on the computer management and choose to connect to
another computer.
Type the name of the computer or click browse to navigate to that computer
if it's discoverable.
When you've connected to desired computer open administrators group and add
the user to that group.
User itself can't add himself to a power user group or an administrators
group.

The thing is, we can't able to do that also. Thats an issue.

Thats why i am asking whether atleast user themselves can add their login
name in that pc ?
