We have laptops that are deployed in several location, which needs re-baselined after the job is done and get it ready for the next job. We use a hard drive cloning system to burn several hard drive at a time. After the hard drive has been re-baselined and installed in the computer we change the computer name and then re-join the domain. The problem is when you log into the domain with admin rights using the laptop and need to load print drivers or service packs the laptop says you dont have administrator rights. We have found a work around by logging onto the laptop locally and add your domainname/username to the administrator properties of the local computer. Is there another solution or something we are doing wrong?
There's no solution, and you're doing nothing wrong; this is normal behavior.
This should not happen when you have admin rights on the domain.
That would depend upon how your specific domain is configured. Or it may be that you're not adding domain admins to the local administrator group when adding the machines to the domain.
