Default [Samba] Samba 2.2.5 & Domain Administrator

Although I will be updating this server to Samba 3.x soon, I have to =
come
up with a quick solution as soon as possible for the following problem:

I have a WinXP user which currently is registered as a "User" of WinXP
but must be changed to "Domain Admin" in order for some new
software which he must use to be operable. Of course giving him the root =

passwd is definately out of the question.

I already have the "domain admin group =3D @domadm" parameter
in my smb.conf file and the only memeber of domadm is root.

I added via YAST the user to domadm group as well (was only
a member of "users" group) but when I try to use any Admin
issues in WinXP when the user logs in, I see that he doesn't have
the priviledges required. It appears that the user is not an=20
admin user as stated in smb.conf.

I have also tried "domain admin group =3D @domadm johnq" as well
(where johnyq is the username of the user which logs in) but still
nothing!

Does the user by any chance have to be a memeber only of the
domadm group or can he be a memeber of users & domadm
at the same time, or is this an irrelevant issue?

Thank you all for your help!
Chris

PS: SuSE 8.1 running Samba 2.2.5. Samba is running lovely for all
Win users (98, XP, 2000 etc) including the user in question, up
to now that I have to give hime Admin priviledges.
