My company uses Windows NT as its major operating system and all of the computers are fully networked with "Rights" designated to each group.

I have NT on my PC and I have to log on to the network but the sad and most annoying thing is that if I want to install a program or change system settings, I have to log out and log on as local administrator in order to perform these tasks.

Isn't there someway through which I can be the Administrator for my PC whenever I log on to the Network?

If you run musrmgr on your workstation, you can add your network ID or group to the local Administrators group.

Check with your compnay to see it that's accpetable policy first.

Log on to the system as the administrator and then add your userid to the administrators group in user manager. Then when log off and log in as your userid.
