network properties are avalible to the Network Configuration Operators on the local machine. I would create a domain group and add that group to the local NCO group. Then you can just add the users to the domain group and they'll have access to network settings on that local computer.

What about installing softare? Do you generally let standard users have this right?<br />
I am finding it quite hard to keep people happy, we run a helpdesk and I do not want to restrict users too much.<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
Is there a way of giving access to certain parts of computer (on a domain) without adding the users domain account to the local admin account on their computer?<br />
I want to give them some access, but not complete access.<br />
I have noticed things like network connection properties are limited and installation rights.<br />
Any advice would be appreciated.

User restrictions on a windows 2003 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).
