Hmmm - I don't understand why you'd want to add domain users to a local
admins group if you want to lock down your workstations. Running (most)
applications shouldn't require that users have anything more than User
rights....and users shouldn't be installing software anyway, right? You
might want to post (with more detail, and your specific goals) in
microsoft.public.windows.group_policy for help with this.
