Add domain user as local admin in Windows 7 using VPN to connect to domain
- by kev
I am rebuilding my work computer from scratch and need to add my domain user as a local admin on my computer. I have successfully added my PC to the domain, but I cannot add my domain user account to the local admins.
I have tried to do the following:
Connect to the work domain using a Windows VPN
Add my computer to the work domain
Start right click on Computer Manage - go to Users and Groups right click on Administrators group and add my domain user
The problem is that after adding my domain user to the Administrators group, I don't see my domain user under the Local Users group. When I try to log on as my domain user I get the following error message:
There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon
request
Any ideas?
