I am having a problem.
I have the following code to add user to local pc.

<-------------
'On Error Resume Next
' *********** start User Name ****************
Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
strUserName = objNetwork.UserName
computername= objNetwork.Computername
'************* End User Name *************
strComputer=computername
strGroup="Administrators"
strDomain="MPDC"
strUser=strUserName
Set objGroupToUpdate = GetObject("WinNT://" & strComputer & "/" & strGroup & ",group")
Set objUserToAdd = GetObject("WinNT://" & strDomain & "/" & strUser & ",user")
objGroupToUpdate.Add(objUserToAdd.ADsPath)
-------------->
The thing is as i am a network adminstrator my login works fine.
As a user that is not a network administrator they get a error. 

Error:  "General access denied error".
Code : 80070005
Source Active Directory

Has anyone had this problem.

Thanks

Status: offline 		Let me see if I read this correctly.  You are a Network Admin and the script you have shown to add a user to a local PC works.  However when an end user trys to run the same script to add a user to the local PC it errors out.  Is this correct?

We a user logs onto the domain that domain user gets added to the user accounts on the pc.
If they are a new user i seem to get a error.

Why would you need to do this?

Are you the only NA on your network?
