Hi!

How can this be accomplished:

On a WindowsXP workstation (SP1 or SP2), on a Windows NT 4.0 Server
(SP6.0a) domain, how can a user be set up to be a regular domain user on
the network, yet an administrator on the local workstation?



Certainly. Simply add the user's domain account to the workstation's local administrators group.

1) Log into the workstation using an account with administrative privileges.

2) Right-click My Computer > Manage > Local Users and Groups > Groups > Administrators > Add.
