Hi Henry,
Thanks for using the SBS newsgroup. Also thanks for Sal's input.
>From your description, I understand that you have some questions about
Local Administrators group members. If I am off base, please don't hesitate
to let me know.
When we join the client computers to domain using connectcomputer wizard,
the user accounts you assigned to the client computer, along with the
Domain Admins group, will be added to the local Administrators security
group so that they have the right to install client software onto the
computer. The client software installation process need run under the
administrator account. If you don't want to some user account has
administrator right, you needn't assign the account to the computer here.
In domain environment, domain users can logon any computers if they has
sufficient permissions.
To delete those user accounts from administrator group, you can logon the
computer with domain admin account or local administrator account, locate
Start -> control panel -> User accounts, open User accounts page, click
Remove button to remove user accounts from the Administrator group.
There are some group policies about the topic, hope it useful to you:
