Hi,

I have a Windows 2003 AD (Windos Server 2003 domain function level) and all
my clients are either Windows XP or Windows 2000. What I would accomplish it
to give few users that I have grouped together to be able to install and
uninstall applications on the workstations, and nothing else.

Currently, I gave them 'Domain Admins' rights but disable a lot of
functionalities that domain admin can do through Group Policy, such as
disable features in MMC and software restriction. I don't know of other ways
to accomplish this besides giving them 'Domain Admins' privilege. The
delegate control features does not have I was looking for.

Does anyone have a better solution to accomplish this?

I have read one suggestion is to use 'Restricted Group' but I don't know how
it works. What actually is 'Restricted Group'?

Any idea and help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
