How can I make a domain user an administrator on his PC? Let's say the user id is MROACH and his PC name is MROACH and the domain name is ROACHMOTEL.LOCAL. Right now the user is a member of the Domain Users group (ROACHMOTEL.LOCAL/USERS) and that's all.
 
You can add them to the local administrator group on there pc. This will give them local admin rights but still domain user rights on networked resources.
 
One way is to open Computer Management. Right click the Comp. Mgmt icon and select connect to another computer. Connect to user's Pc then drill down to System Tools -> Local Users & Groups -> Groups. In the Groups folder double click the Administrators group and the add the user's domain account to it.
