enterprise admins in single domain question



Hi all,

in a single out of the box Windows 2003 AD Domain (no root or child
domains), I noticed that domain admins can freely add themlselves into
the enterprise admin groups.

is this normal ? Actually, in a forest made of a single domain, where's
the difference between enterprise and domain admins ?

Thanks

.
