Start at the local machine and work your way up. Examine the Administrators
group on the machine-- if I recall correctly it will usually only contain
the Domain Admins group from the domain it belongs to-- not the Enterprise
Admins group.

Again, IIRC, The Enterprise Admins group is, by default, a member of the
domain controller's local builtin\Administrators group but not the Domain
Admins group.

I can't verify on my setup because I've messed with things :)
