Is there a way to grant admin rights to a user for a limited amount
of time?

Well, you can manually grant their account local admin rights, and then
manually take them away. What's your goal here? There's nothing built in
that automatically does this.
 
Thank you , you answered my question. I have sales people that need admin
rightsa to install printers away from the office. If there was a time limit,
I could give them admin rights, and have them removed at a predetermined
time. But I guess I will have to do the manual way afterall.

Thanks again.

Yes, a common request. I'm wondering whether you might not be able to allow
them to install printers as regular users using group policy. Try posting in
microsoft.public.windows.group_policy - and mention whether you're running
AD (and if so, W2000 or 2003).
