Dear List, Is there a way to get information about changes done to the Local "Administrators" group of a PC that is attached to the domain. I know that it is possible to get information about changes in the user groups defined within the AD, but that is not my objective instead my concern is about local admin / power user groups within individual PCs connected to the domain. I do not want to check in the event viewer of individiual PCs but hoped to see this info come to a central place or to the event viewer of any of the domain controllers within the network whose logs are already being audited. If anyone has thought abt this before & know a way to achieve it without the installation of any agent on PCs barring a logon batch file if necessary, please would you let me know of the same. Thanks, Tinu Koshy PS: My paranoia comes from the fact that we have over 40 domain administrators. I hope to put in a process correction there but only once I have some technical controls to back me. =========================================================== Disclaimer: The information in this email and in any files Transmitted with it is intended only for the addressee and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
