That is what I am trying to figure out. If I add John Doe to the
administrators group at the PC then it shows something like:
administrator
domain_name\Domain Admins
domain_name\John.Doe
But if I add John Doe as a user first, then go into the local
administrator's group I can add him and it looks like:
administrator
John.Doe
domain_name\Domain Admins
So my question is, what is the difference as far as permissions and rights
for 'domain_name\John.Doe' as an administrator and just 'John.Doe' as an
administrator? Therein lies my quandry...
