Admin Rights Closed

Question

Hello,

How do I add a user to have administrative rights without being prompt for a password.
I want to apply it as a logon script, and this is want I have. It works, but prompts for the password

@echo off
cls
runas /user:Domain\username "net localgroup administrator /add domain\%username%
exit

If there is a way in vbs could you post the command lines, as I am not familiar with it.
Oh, I have also tried piping the password... sadly it didn't work...

Hye there,

all you will have to do:

You have to add the users DOMAIN account to the LOCAL Adminstrators group, on the local machine, using User Manager (or new localgroup from command line). Open the Administrators group and use the add button. In the drop down box make sure you are listing names from the domain, and just select the one you want.

Don't add them to the Administrator's group on the server - just makes them a local Administrator of the server machine (as opposed to the domain, and certainly not an Administrator of any machines in the domain).

That's all 
thanks

I would like to give all the users administrative rights on there own machines, not on the server.
This command works

runas /user:domain\username "net localgroup administrator /add domain\%username%"

but I want it to be automated, without prompting for a password.
If you maybe now of some commands that I can use, either with vbs or bat files it would be great
