When I add a user and a computer to the domain, is the user account added to the computer’s Local Admins group?
All new user accounts added to a computer are assigned Standard User group membership by default, not Local Admins. However, if you use the Connect Computer wizard to import a user profile that already exists on the computer and the user account is already a member of the Local Admins group, then the user account keeps its current group membership. User membership in the Local Admins group can subsequently be changed in the Administration Console.
