samba - Feb 2005 - How to give more rights to users ?

Hello Everybody,

I've just finished to install a SAMBA domain with LDAP authentication. 
All works fine :). The clients runs Windows 2000 Pro or Windows XP. The 
problem is that a simple user can't install or modify some system 
parameters and in my office it's needed by some users. So I would like 
to know how to give these rights to users logged in the domain on their 
local system ?

Thank you for your answers

Best Regards,
Olivier BONHOMME

regular way of doing such things is to assign privileges to local group
(if not already assigned) and to include Domain Group (or number of Domain 
Users) to that local group (custom created local group or 
"Administrators", for instance)

Domain group "Domain Admins" is included by default to local 
Administrators group, so, if You want to give some user Admin access to 
all workstations, just put that user to "Domain Admins"

such management can be done either manually (My Computer --> Manage --> 
Local Users and Groups) or by using command line utilities such as 
"secedit".

The problem is rights on the local computers.  Right click on "My
Computer"
and select manage.  Under users and groups add "Domain Users" to
either the
Admainistrators group or the power users group.
