>From the security token it is seen that the user is not a member of Domain
admins or enterprise admins. All we have is:
sids                     : S-1-5-21-2824053618-3522172672-2706769870-1104 -
I assume this is  the machine account sid
              sids                     :
S-1-5-21-2824053618-3522172672-2706769870-515 - Domain Computers
              sids                     : S-1-1-0 - Everyone
              sids                     : S-1-5-2 - Network
              sids                     : S-1-5-11 - Authenticated Users

For some reason the account has not become a member of Domain Admins.
