How do you set up a local account on a PDC? I know NT Workstations use user manager, what about server?

The same way you do on an NT workstation. With User Manager.

You can open User Manager for Domains and User:Select Domain. Then you type in a double backslash (\\) followed by the PDC's machine name. For example \\PDC1
You might need give the user the right to log on locally.

Actually, I don't think the above answers will work, since the local account on a PDC IS the domain accounts. If you try to change to \\pdc, the you will still be seeing the Domain groups...In fact I'm sure that the PDC will tell you that the domainaccounts will be displayed.
