Dear Anonymous:
and Steven, If you're reading this, I miswrote your reply, its article
285793 my comment.is about.

Thank you for the references to those articles, they helped me to solve the
problem,
in particular 276580 and 285793.

  Yes, there was a difference between local setting and effective setting.
I had to fix it at the domain level by taking out my stipulated "log on
locally" settings there.

Then I could get in to the local machine as administrator. :-).

Regarding 285793:
It would be nice If the domain controller could see the local accounts which
reside on client machines and be able to work with those as well.

For instance I would have liked to add HAL9000\Administrator
to "Log on Locally" and have it apply to HAL9000.

This was _almost possible in KB article 285793, BUT
"HAL9000\Administrator" is not available in the directory from the DC,
which is jewelconsulting.org, nor is it available in the full directory.

Once having removed my stipulated accounts from the domain level,
it worked.

it works now, and thank you for that great information!

I later cleaned up the mess by stipulating in each client.
