we have AD installed on win 2003 server. after computers were added to domain we tryed to add domain users to local admins (under local admin account). but this turns out to be impossible. combobox for choosing machine or domain is disabled. so you can see the users only from local machine. maybe there are some restrictions in domain policies - or what is bad?

You need to logon to the machine as a domain account (such as a Domain Admin) and set it. Only domain accounts can see what's in the domain.
