samba - Feb 2002 - Local administrator access

Hi all
 
After a fair bit of fiddling around I've managed to get our XP Pro and
Win2K Pro machines to log into our Samba 2.2.2 Domain. 
 
However, we now have the problem of not having local administrator
access to our own machines. This means that we can't change things like
hardware, etc. or even install programs. Does anyone know how to get
around / fix this? I would like to get around it ASAP as it is our own
internal office server.
 
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Warren Shepherd.

Yes, you can get admin access.  This is a standard thing that has happened 
with NT upwards - you need to log on as a Local Administrator and add the 
DOMAIN\Domain Users to the Administrators group.  I have no idea where this 
is in 2K/XP, but in all likelihood it's somewhere in the Control Panel.  In 
NT it's Administrative Tools -> User Manager.

I am not a member of the samba team,
and anything that I say may not be as
accurate as a response from one of the
team.  I reply to save those more
qualified time, which can more usefully
be spent developing SAMBA further.
