Hi Kits- You can do this a number of ways although mostly via scripting. VBScript is one common way. See the following article for the VBScript method: http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/09/23/how-can-i-add-a-domain-group-to-the-local-administrators-group.aspx You can also achieve this by using Retricted Group in Group Policy. The official documentation is a bit old and fragmented but you can get an overview at the following KB: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/279301 Here is a bit more detail and step-by-step guide for Restricted Groups (non-Microsoft link): http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/rdixon/archive/2008/06/17/how-to-add-domain-accounts-to-local-administrators-group-using-gpo.aspx With Restricted Groups - be aware of the pros and cons and test in a test environment before you go live.

Can this be achieved by commadn line kits Hi, You can use following command on each server to manually add the account net localgroup administrators /add domain\account If you need to automate the solution and add the account on several servers, you need a script as suggested above.
