| Can only be done with 2 accounts. Basically they keep their regular account. Then you make a regular domain account then grant it access in AD up to what it needs. Then apply a policy to block it from being able to log onto anything but the domain controller. However I'm unsure if the policy to block logons is "deep" enough to block the "runas" feature. It would have to be researched. The only other option is for the regular account to be blocked from the runas.exe. Although I'm not sure if that blocks the gui runas, i.e. shift right-click. And if that user has more than 2 accounts. Catch is all accounts that user has would need to have the runas blocked. Also the "admin" account would need to be denied remote logon if you always want them physically at the console each time they need to work on it.

Since it was not the computer account I created a new domain admin account, which solved the problem.
Now there is just the question of what one does to a domain admin account so it can only do admin tasks on the DC, not from a workstation?

Ah that's perhaps the problem:
Logged into the DC I can see this:
Domain admins has Link GPOs for "This container only" on the domain.
My admin account, which is a domain admin account has "This Container and all child objects"
Enterprise Admins (I am also an Enterprise Admin) has "This Container and all child objects"
Further down the tree, the Default Domain Policy, and all the other Group Policy Objects, domain admins have "Edit settings, delete, modify security", but my particular account is not mentioned.

Carol-
Can you verify that Domain Admins truly has the proper rights on GPOs? Can you view the security on a particular GPO and look at what it says under the Delegation tab in GPMC?

I have taken my workstation out of the domain, deleted its account, waited 15 minutes and re-joined it.
No errors during the process.
I still have all the "edit" options greyed out. (Edit, New, Create a GPO, Link a GPO, Block Inheritance..)

I only joined the domain last week, I can try re-joining it.
Another of the RSAT tools is DNS editor; I can view the DNS settings on the DC but not edit them.
It looks like permissions thing.
The machine is getting updated by the group policy, gpupdate generated no errors.
My domain logon seems valid, but I will take myself out of the domain and back in again.

Carol-
Based on your description, are you sure that your machine account is still good with the domain? Does other domain-based authentication work? Also, not sure what you mean by you can't edit your DNS? Do you mean your DNS server or the DNS config. on your client?

Windows 2003 R2 DC, in a domain that once was managed by SBS.
I'm working remotely from a Vista SP1 workstation in the domain, logged in as a domain admin.
I am off site working through a firewall-firewall VPN.
I have my RSAT tools (Group Policy Management console and so on) and I can run them as administrator, but even then I cannot edit anything.
I cannot edit my DNS either.
If I log onto the server with the same account I can change all these things.
I have checked my user (elevated command prompt and whoami). I have write access to the admin shares on the DC.
