Can I add a local account defined on Computer A to the NTFS file security
list on Computer B? I thought I could just click add and type in
PC\localaccount syntax but it only allows the current PC's local accounts or
the domain. Isn't this possible?

Windows XP SP2

Click to expand...

Nope - and if you have a domain, there shouldn't be any local user accounts
at all. All users should log into the domain only....and ideally, nothing
should be stored or shared on workstations.
