Hiya,
If client computers are in domain, you should be able to that with a Group Policy.

you can write:
gpupdate /force from elevated cmd to apply your GPO.

If you don't want to go the GPO route, log on each machine locally as admin and
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Computer Management.
From there click on Local Users and Groups in the left column.
Open Groups
Double click Administrators
Click Add
Select Locations and select your domain.
Type in domain id xyz.admin.
Select Apply.
Viola... You are done.
Edited to add: My instructions are for XP... I don't speak "7" yet.

Hello,
you should use Restricted groups group policy setting for this, please see the great blog from Florian how to do it:
