It worked perfectly with my Windows XP PCs, but does not seem to work with
my
Windows 2000 Pro PCs. Is there anything different I need to do with the
Windows 2000 PCs?

There is absolutely nothing that has to be done on the client side.

Create the gpo in the ou where the Computers reside (NOT the users), go
to
computer configuration/windows settings/security settings/restricted
groups,
right click on restricted groups and select new group (For the local
computers, this group name should be - administrators) and key in the
group
you want auto populated. Select add on the Members of this group and
then
add the members you want populated.

I need to be able to setup an OU Administrators Group that also has the
ability to access all of the administrative shares for just the
computers
located in the OU. I will then add all users that I need them to be
able
to
install new software and also access c$

I cannot allow the OU Administrators to access any other administrative
functions in the rest of the Domain.

The Administrative share I need them to access is c$
