Greetings! This is NOT as stupid a question as it appears to be... In Vista Business, to what local group must one be added to be a local administrator? (Hint - "Administrators" does not seem to be the correct answer!)
We got a new laptop w/Vista Business on it. The principle user has been made an administrator so that specifice HR apps can be installed by/for our HR manager. Problem is, one tries to connect to a network share, change some network configurations, etc, and they get a pop-up message saying that the action is denied - it requires administrator rights. No UAC, no "are you really wanting to do this", no "give the administrator password", no nothhing. This person, a member of the "Administrators" group, can do little as those actions require one to be an administrator. What am I missing (besides XP)? -------------------------------------- Richard McClary, Systems Administrator ASPCA Knowledge Management 1717 S Philo Rd, Ste 36, Urbana, IL 61802 217-337-9761 http://www.aspca.org ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
