Ryan,

I believe this will work even better than I hoped.

I can add mydomain\SalesAdmins to the local Administrators group, or
even force the membership of Administrators to be mydomain\SalesAdmins.

Outstanding

I would like to create a policy that dictates that only administrators may access servers remotely.  How can I apply this policy to both groups of computers but have administrators mean Sales Admins in one case and Manufacturing Admins in the other?
