You simply need to add the domain user to the local "administrators" group on that machine. On that machine as an administrator...Right-Click on "My Computer" -> Manage -> Local Users and Groups -> Groupsthen double-click on "Administrators" -> Add -> Locations -> [select domain] -> Enter User Name in Box -> Check Names -> then "OK" your way out.HTH, JW
