Hi :)
Brilliant!

I thought the whole thing about domains was a red herring but Malcolm needs
to be a local admin on that specific machine.  It sounds sensible to avoid
letting a "domain admin" also be an admin on any local machine for security
reasons.

Actually, this is wrong.

When you join a machine to a domain, the 'Domain Admins' group is
automatically added to the Local Administrators group on the computer
that was joined. It has been this way forever (as long as I can
remember), and is extremely useful, and is simply not a 'security issue'
as you suggest.
