Hello Everyone,

I am trying to give the Domain user, local administrative rights on a
windows 2003 server. My Primary Domain Controller is Windows 2003 SBS
Edition. When I installed the new server with windows 2003 Std Edition,
I joined the existing domain and I can login to the new server with
domain users.

But when try to include the Domain user into my local Administrator
group, I can't locate the domain.

Any idea?

Thanks
Sam
