Restricted Groups / Local Administrators


Recommended Posts

I've looked up and followed all the directions I could find on this topic,

but I'm still having problems.

 

I simply want to add a select group of users, primarily consultants, to the

local administrators group - this allows them to fiddle with their software,

but I want their server access to be restricted.

 

I created a domain group, added them to it, then added this group to

Restricted Groups and then added "Administrators" to "this group is a member

of". I also tried it by adding users to the upper section.

 

In the main, it worked, however it kept adding either the group or users

that I had added to the Restricted Groups, into the domain administrators

group, which I definitely don't want - I only want them to have local admin

access.

 

What is that I'm doing wrong?

 

Is it something to do with OUs? The above problem occurs when the GP is in

the root of the domain, and from what I've read it should be under "Computer

Accounts". I've tried putting it under Computers\SBS Computers, but nothing

happens at all?

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks

Russell.

There must be a "Local administrators" group, try to use it.
