What do you mean &quot;added Administrators froup from the Domain&quot; and how did you do that?

What do you mean "added Administrators froup from the Domain" and how did you do that?

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'm having various permissions problems with the XP Pro machine after it was rebuilt and then rejoined to the Domain.<br />
The operating System is Enterprise Server 2003<br />
<br />
When a user that is in the Domain Administrators group logs on to the Domain, using the rebuilt machine, it does not have the &nbsp;permissions of an Administrator on that machine. &nbsp;The only way to get those permissions is to log on as the &quot;Domain Administrator&quot;.<br />
<br />
When I rejoined the machine to the Domain the only thing I did was to log on as a user in the Administrators group of the Domain. &nbsp;I was kind of surprised that I didn't have t delete the old machine from the Domain and let it add itself back in?<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated<br />
<br />
Thanks

Permissions problems when rejoining an XP Pro machine back to the Domain

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
