Hi,
I understand how to create the groups, thanks for clarifying how to appliy
it to all computers with a group ploicy.
Once i have that group applied to all of my PC's how do i make that group a
local admin of that machine without having to log onto every machine?
I have looked through the group policy settings but i cannot find anything
specific.
Many thanks for your help...
Cheryl
