For example...log in as any user, go to a command prompt and type...<br />
whoami /groups<br />
<br />
You will always see NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE as one of your group memberships when you are logged in locally.<br />
When connecting to a computer remotely (IE accessing a network share) you do not gain this membership however.

I'm actualy adding this to the GPO file of a local system that I will be imaging. Its important that we have this on our systems to make sure that anyone that logs into the machine is a Administrator on it and can run software that requires Administrator access.

I just used this method but I didn't add the INTERACTIVE group... I created a more restrictive group (but more open than Domain Admins) and added that group to local administrators.<br />
<br />
It's very helpful to have this functionality.<br />

The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
