By design. Normal users (non-admins) should not be logging on to a
domain controller at the console.

You can change this in the Default Domain Controllers Policy by
modifying the Logon Locally user right, but from a security perspective,
not a good idea.
 
The user is not a domain admin? Correct?
If so you need to add the new user into group policy for the "allow logon
locally" user right.

Howdy!

By default, normal users are not allowed to log on to the console of a
Domain Controller. You can check who currently has this right by looking
at the Domain Controllers Group Policy. Check the "Log on Locally" right.

You should control access to the console of your Domain Controllers, so it
is strongly recomended that you do NOT allow regular domain users to log on
locally.
