I believe you can do this from the DC even though there isn't a Power Users
group on the DC, but you have to simply type it in - you can't select it.
If you were to do this from a machine using the adminpak then the Power
Users group exists on that machine and would therefore show up in the
applicable box/ window.
In case you're not sure, the adminpak can be found in the
%systemroot%\system32 of any server. It is called adminpak.msi. If you are
running Win2000, you should get this from a Win2000 server; if you are
running XP you should either get this from a 2003 server or download it from
http://download.microsoft.com. If you're using another platform you're out
of luck ;-)

Hi Everyone First thanks for help. Both Herb and Gary mention the need of this Adminpak and working from a workstation to get this to work. I must admit that I haven't yet read a article that has mentioned this or actually seen it in several of the Microsoft training books I have looked through. I will have to mention this to one of our instructors who brought it to my attention when he was working through a training manual in preperation for a lab and I know there is no mention in this manual about this. I used the interactive group based on the advise of another network administrator but based on what Ptwilliams has said I can see the problem there. "Cary Shultz [A.D.
