If he only needs admin rights on these 2 machines, just add his domain account into the local admins group on both servers. You can install any missing tools onto those servers, too. Does that help? neil
_____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Sent: 10 January 2007 05:20 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Domain Admin I have a consultant that is asking for domain admin rights on 2 member servers. I have google it but nothing seems to work out right. The servers are on the domain but the consultant just has a domain user account. He can logon on to the servers while they are on the domain but the administrative tools is not there (as it should). I want to creat an OU and put the two machines in that ou and delegate control to the consultants domain user account. Any other way to do this without registry hacks or scripts?
