NT ws looses privileges

[Thomas Heiligenmann]

AFAIK Domain Admins have no local admin privileges on a local NT wks by
default. Login on your NT workstation as _local_ admin user and add the
Domain Admins to the local Administrators group using the local User
Manager. I think this should do the trick.

Cheers,
Thomas
