There are two "levels" of admin using the domain's Administrators
group or using the Domain Admins group. Domain Admins grants
a number of things not granted by the domain's Administrators group,
such as privileges on AD objects. The domain's Administrators group
is recognized by all DCs.
I have domain with many DC, i want to grant some user administrative
rights
only on specified DC, not for entire domain. I have read KB240267
("Administrators cannot be restricted in Windows 2000" - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/240267). It's impossible for Win200, and
what
about Win2003?
