permissions across domain without trust? <churchmouse 08-07-2006

Is it possible to have a select few members (one or two) of Domain A be full
administrators of Domain B without establishing a trust between the two?

Background:
I am part of large organization and I have about 10 machines that are in a
separated workgroup on a separate subnet in my dept. I want to put them in a
domain for administrative purposes. I am not an admin on Domain A and these
units would be on Domain B.
I know that if I trust Domain A I can make this happen but I would prefer to
not involve that domain at all. It is an NT4 domain and they will be
upgrading to 2k3 AD at some point and I don't want my domain disturbed by
that tranistion.

What are the possibilities?

Define new accounts in Domain B for those individuals.
Without any trust or shared forest there is no meaning to the foreign
accounts and no use may be made of them,
