Hello Steven,
I tried to do the net localgroup in startup or login got zip for results,
although
the GPO did correctly do other odd jobs update internet favorites and
software
installs. I read some where a "remote" script cannot execute net.exe in
this manner
yet I have seen your solution posted multiple times /places so I am hoping
to get
this to run so I can globally modify local XP administrator users. Any
thoughts ?
W2003 std, with XP serv Pack 2 workstations. Thanks, Dan T.
