Can you provide an example? To my best knowledge, such thing simply does not
exist (in NT4 domain, that is). You have users and groups defined on domain
controller(s) - they are global, domain-wide. And you have users and groups
defined on domain member(s) - they are local _for_each_member_.
If have NT workstation A and B they have different "local" groups (even with
the same names). May be, you mean these?
