Dose anyone know if the power user group is identified
differently than just power users I have tried to use the
localgroup command to insert a user in to that group and
it says it dose not exist. But yet it shows up when you
type net localgroup in the command line I have not yet
found any info

Thanks
 
Rock,

What are the chances that you are typing "net localgroup" from a client
computer, that just happens to be managing AD? If this is the case, then the
localgroup list will come from the local SAM, not the domain. The domain
does not have a Power Users group, only local SAMS do.

When I type "net localgroup" on any DC that I have, the Power Users group is
not listed.

Another possible solution is that someone created a "Power Users" group on
the DC, but it is not a local group, but rather a global or universal group?

Just some thoughts.
