Here is a question put to me by a colleague:
"Does anyone know if it is possible to set a GPO only for users that are local administrators without using AD groups? e.g. if you wanted to set a particular setting for users who have their user accounts explicitly added to the local admins group on their box rather than via group membership."

Is this possible? My initial thought is to use WMI filters, but this could be expensive.

Yes this is possible using restricted groups. Instead of defining the
explicit membership of a group, you can use restricted groups to add a
member to a local group. Check out KB article 228496

Let me re-word my question :)

- A GPO exists which is linked to the domainDNS object
- It has User config settings
- The requirement is that these settings only be applied to domain user
objects which are also members of the local admin group on the domain
member machine that they are logged on at.
Is this possible?

Thanks,
neil

Neil-
That is a tough one. What you're trying to do is essentially filter a
user policy based on transient (i.e. it could change at any time)
computer criteria (member machine local group membership). Its always
difficult to do that if you're not using something like loopback, which
probably wouldn't work here anyway. A WMI filter might work if you could
craft a WQL statement that can get the currently logged on user and
query to see if they are in the local Admin group, but, that's beyond my
WMI knowledge. Maybe if Alain is lurking...
