hi all,

i was wondering how you give rights to a user logging into a domain =
computer, so that they can install software. I dont want them to have =
admin rights all over the network, but do want them to update certain =
programs we use internally.

is there a way to give them app install rights w/o being domain admin?

thanks,
george hardy

If you want to allow users full access to a member server, but not the domain,
you can add "NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE" to the administrators group on the
member server. This will grant any logged on user admin rights to the member
server when they are logged into it.

Carl:

This looks interesting. Does it only limit them to interactive logons at the
console and RDP? So they wouldn't be able to do any admin level stuff via
something like the comp mgt mmc from another computer?

Correct. We use it on our user pc's. It gives whoever logs on locally the
local admin rights to install software. They can not, however, connect to any
other pc remotely, except under specific conditions. I.E, they put
themselves in the administrators group on one pc, and then log onto another
pc.

so the short answer is add NT AUTHORITY/INTERACTIVE right on the workstation
for the user?
