Junior Admministrator Account, WinXP?
LockedDear Wise Ones,
I think I finally have a quick, easy question to ask. I run an XP/Server 2003 network in a school. I’ve been given two very trustworthy students to help me out and I want to give them administrator privileges on the workstations. I’m happy if they can use their logins to do anything to the workstations EXCEPT change the original administrator password. So far, none of the account types that I’ve tried (Backup Operators, Help Services Group, Network Configuration Operators or Power Users) give enough administrator privileges and if I make them Administrators, then they can change the original Administrator password from the Users control panel.
Is there any way to do what I want: create an account that has full Administrator powers EXCEPT for messing with the original Administrator account? I don’t mind if such an account will give them such access from the command line, I just don’t want it to be possible through control panels.
Thanks much as always,
Lev in Brooklyn
