I think you've got it. Let's pick on poor Bob as an example.
You have a domain account named "Bob". Bob is a normal domain user and has
no domain administrator rights. If you go to the Workgroup computer he
wants to connect to over the network and use the Local User Manager
(lusrmgr.msc) to add Bob's name and password to the Administrator group on
the local machine, he will be able to connect to it remotely and have
Administrator rights on the Workgroup PC, but still will have no Domain
rights other than Domain User.
