What is the easiest way to add/remove a domain user to the local admin group of a workstation?

Once in a while, I need to give temporarily some domain user local admin privilege of a specific workstation. For ease of discussion, I make up some names here.

Windows 2003 server AD: svr-dc
domain user: userA
workstation (XP): pc-user
workstation (XP): pc-admin
Goal: look for some quick way (maybe script) to add/remove userA to/from the local admin group of pc-user.

Q#1. Is it possible to run some script (on demand) to achieve the above goal?
Q#2. Is there any other way (maybe better) to do this?

Thanks.
