The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problems with adding a DOMAIN userid to LOCAL ADMINISTRATORS GROUP and CHANGING LOCAL SECURITY POLICY

Asked by raclo in Miscellaneous Security

Tags: , , ,

1) When I try to ADD any DOMAIN Userid to the LOCAL ADMINISTRATORS GROUP, I can view the LOCAL MACHINE and DOMAIN in the "Look in" drop down list and I am allowed to choose any Userid but an error "PROCESSING OF OBJECT <USERNAME> FAILED WITH FOLLOWING ERROR: THE SPECIFIED DOMAIN EITHER DOES NOT EXIST OR COULD NOT BE CONTACTED" occurs when I click on ADD, then The "Look in" drop down is disabled and the ADD attempt does not take effect. After I restart the LOCAL MACHINE, the "Look in" drop down is enabled again but every attempt to ADD any DOMAIN Userid results in the same error. This is true for all the computers in the DOMAIN.

1.1) What could be causing this?
1.2) What can I do to solve this?
1.3) Where do I look or start to apply a solution to this problem?

2) I changed my Local Security Policy "Allow system to be shut down without having to log on" to "Enabled". The Group Policy setting for this Policy is "Not Defined" so the Local Policy should take effect. But in my case it doesn't work. I had to define the Policy in the Group Policy and set it to "Enabled" so that it will work.

On the DOMAIN in our other branch office, we didn't have to define the Group Policy. We only defined the Local Policy and it works fine but it doesn't in our main branch office.

2.1) What could be the problem and what could be causing the different behaviour? (All settings for both DOMAINs are identical)
2.2) What can I do to solve this?Start Free Trial
