I want to know if there is a way to administer groups on OS X machine without taking over the users computer using ARD.
I have looked in /etc/groups and it does not list the user under the "admin" group. If I look in Netinfo it will show me what groups the user belongs to or I can run the "id" command. Neither the Netinfo or the "id" command will allow me to remove a user from the admin group.
Users here have to request root access to their machines and at some point if they lose those rights then we need to be able to remove their access and having to go to a users desk or take over the machine with ARD seems to be a little excessive and time consuming.
Thanks for any and all help! Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong forum I brielfly looked over the forums and this seemed to be the most appropriate one.
