Sorry, ignore my last post completely - I read that as unlock user right,
not the unlock workstation.
I think Joe is correct - I believe only admins on the machine can unlock
computers.

If you mean unlock the console of a machine locked by a user, I think you
have to be an administrator on that machine. It doesn't take any domain
level permissions except being an authenticatable user unless the machine
someone wants to unlock is a DC, at which point they have to be an admin of
the DCs.

Account Operators Local Group I think. Must us ADU&C, you might have to
grant permissions to the group if inheritance is blocked on some OUâs.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Unlock Workstation User Right
I want to grant some users the right to unlock workstations in a W2K3
domain. I have scanned through Group Policy and I canât seem to find the
appropriate setting to do this. Is this a right that is automatically
granted to one of the Built-In groups? If so, which one? It seems
overkill to have to add users to the Administrators group to get this
right.
Thanks in advance for any help the list can give.
