I was using a Domain Admin Account. Although the local admin account does exactly the same thing. I'm thinking that I missed something in the setup of the DC - like enabling something in policy that would let a Domain Admin set things on member servers. I must not be googling for the right keywords because this should not be this obscure to find the solution to. It can't be that hard as I've done it for another scratch built domain a couple of years ago. I just can't seem to remember what it was. <scowls at self>
Len Was it something about delegation of authority? on the DC?
