Local Admin

Is there a way so when you join a computer to a doman it adds a domain group as a local administrator?

Thanks

Yes, when you add a PC to a domain, you get a logon screen which allows you to logon to the domain or the local computer as a admin.

I was trying to see instead of adding "tech support" group to every computer after you join it to a domain. If there is a way it will automatically add the "tech support" group to the local admins group. Exactly as it automatically adds the "Domain Admin" group to the local admin when you join a computer to a domain.

Thanks

Are you using Active Directory.....If so you should be able to do this in there.

Yes, but do you know where it is in AD

AD is stand for Active Directory. U can set this through Group Policy
I dont know exactly where it is but try to find something like "restricted group" and put your group in there.
