We are running all Windows 2000 workstations in a Windows
2000 domain.

By default, the Domain Admins group becomes a member of
the local PC's Administrators group. I have a need for
another domain group ("IS") to also be a member of the
local Administrators group. I do not want the IS group to
be a member of Domain Admins. Is there some way I can
push this change out to all of the workstations (about
300) instead of visiting each one?

Group Policy or SMS would be my preferred method if
possible.

Thanks,

  Dan
