Is there a way to let an NT user have local admin rights temporary to install a patch in an NT domanin? I want to roll out a MS patch that needs local admin rights...

Bring up the local user manager. Add him an account, make him an admin. Have him log on using that account. Hope like heck he doesn't break anything... and remove the account later.
Or... better yet.. learn to push patches out...
