i am using 2003 server to make domain users local admins on all computers. i am using the group policy managent with the restricted groups in security settings restricted groups. my problem is that when i select &quot;domain computers&quot; to apply to. it puts domains users &nbsp;in my administrators group in active directory. making it an issue b/c then everyone can c everything administrators can. i have thought about making another group and putting all computers in that. or an ou and moving computer from the computers folder to the ou however i thought that might cause some problems. just thought i would ask the best way to accomplish this. the domain controller is not in the domain computers group however so i am not sure how it is applying. thanks in advance.

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.

Software

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).
