samba - Mar 2003 - login as a service to win2k & domain user manager

Hello Samba Administrators,

I'm currently running a Samba PDC ver 2.2.7. I have a couple of issues
that I'm trying to find some resolution on.

First, I need to be able to have a domain user be able to login to my
Win2k clients as a service. I can do this by going to each client and
configuring the Local Security Policy on EACH and EVERY client machine.
This is obviously not a good solution. On a Win2k server I could use the
User Manager for Domains tool, but that tool does not work yet in full
with samba. 


Secondly, how can I add a Domain User to the Local Win2k client
computer's Power Users Group??? Again, I see how to do that at each
machine locally. Is there a way to implement this network-wide? 

Thanks in advance....

Please help us to understand precisely what you are trying to achieve

you currently do this in a pure Microsoft world.
