Greetings, I am not sure if it already had been discussed or archived in the past. I am trying to figure out how to grant the individual domain user to local admin rights to a single workstation through GPO. Let me explain little background on my current AD. One policy for all machines is to keep flushing up any domain users from local administrators group on every machines. I am using Restricted Groups policy under Computer. It works great for domain groups under members in restricted groups. However, I am not able to see where I can add the domain user to local administrators group on specific machine instead of all machines. For example, when I added the domain user to local admin group on a machine, it disappeared after rebooting or gpupdating because of restricted group with members. >From my impression, we need to separate a special dedicated OU for some machines that allows individual user(s) to have admin rights. I don't want to create many GPO for specific machines under several OUs. What is your recommendation or Have you suggested the best solution? Thanks, -- Hatim A.
