I have a customer we just took over for. They have an existing issue where the domain administrator cannot log in locally to the DC. I've looked through all their GPOs and cannot find any instance of the domain admin groups being specially being denied this right. In fact, it says right in the DC GPO that domain admins have the rights for local log in yet I can't seem to log in. Remote desktop works fine and that is how I've been accessing their DC but I cannot find an answer to this problem. Any ideas? 

> domain administrator cannot log in locally to the DC.   What error message do they get?
