Vista - Full Local Access for Domain Admins

Full Local Access for Domain Admins

Hi folks

I am running a Windows 2003 network at home, and have just taken delivery of a shiny new laptop running Vista Ultimate 32bit. I have upgraded the OS to SP1 and joined it onto my domain. I now want to configure the laptop so that any member of the Domain Admins group gets full administration access to the laptop in order to be able to install software.

I used to have my old laptop (running XPSP2) configured in this way so that I didn't have to put in a separate password everytime I wanted to install a piece of software. I'm presuming that there is the ability to do exactly the same in Vista, but I don't seem to be able to add a Domain group to a Local group in the security settings.

Any ideas?


TIA


Ian
