K_ravi30,

All you should need to do is remove everything between and including the lines that start with For Each and Next. This should allow you to only add the user.

Mike, the suggestion of yours to take off the lines that start with For Each and Next dosent seem to be working, I guess am i doing some slight mistake. It gives out an error as below :

Script : c:\winnt\system32\xxx.vbs
line : x
char : x
Error : 0x80005000
Code : 80005000
Source: (null)

Can you help me solve this plzzzzzzzz

FYI- if you are running windows 2k or higher AD then scripting this is unnecessary. You can do this simply through AD by doing the following

1. Open up Policy editor.
2. Go to the following subset "Computer configuration\Windows settings\Security Settings\Restricted groups"
3. Right click on "Restricted Groups", and choose "Add Group"
4. Enter the group name you wish to add/remove members from then click next. i.e. "Administrators"
5. Add whomever you want to have local admin rights.

All local admin rights will be removed an all workstations except the members defined in the policy.

Hope this helps.

I believe he intended to use the script for a NT4 domain (as what he stated in the original post).

I agree with you completely though. If something can be done using GPO (or any other methods provided by the OS), I'll always use that instead. Why doing things the hard way ? :D
