Does this remove all existing local users from that local account or does it just add to the local user account?<br />
<br />
Also, it only applies to that local group account (Administrator) not of the any other local group accounts (i.e. PowerUsers Group)?<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to add a domain user or domain group to a computer's local group via Group Policies?<br />
<br />
Windows Server 2003 AD environment<br />
Windows XP Pro clients<br />
<br />
Right now, I am going to Users &amp;&nbsp;Computers Active Directory and right clicking on the computer and going to manage. &nbsp;Then doing it manually.<br />
<br />
It works, but can time consuming when dealing with several lab computers.<br />
<br />
Just was wondering if there is a way to cover all these computers via GP.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your time.<br />

How can I add domain groups(domain users) to a local computer group?

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

Active Directory

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).

Windows Server 2003

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. 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.
