XP Pro on W2k Server Domain

Have a XP Pro machine logging into a W2K server domain. I would like for
the person on this box to have admin rights on their own machine but have
only user rights for the rest of the domain. Is there any way to accomplish
this?

TIA

On the XP computer add their domain login to the local admin group.

From domain :

Create Group, LOCAL_ADMINS for example
Computer Management on XP(workstation) comp and add this group to
Administrators(local)
And all wyn - only add accounts, which needs administrators rights on
workstations to LOCAL_ADMINS group

For single account you may add it directly to Administrators group on your
workstation
