I handled this by creating a security group on the server and putting all my
users who I want to be able to install software, or right to their local
drives for any reason, into it. Then I went to each workstation and added
that group to the local admin group. This has made life much easier because
now if I want to restrict a user from doing something on the local PC, I
just remove them from the security group and they can't do it. Plus when I
setup a new workstation I add this group by default.
