Temporary Local Admin Access

Before granting local admin access, the user's manager and Rick Durant must give approval.

 

Method 1:


  • Access Active Directory as an Administrator
  • Select Titan.local
  • Select CivicFS
  • Select Users
  • Search for user's name
  • Double click user's name
  • Select "Member Of" Tab
  • Click Add
  • Type "LocalAdmin" and click Check Names
  • Click OK

 

Method 2: 


  • Remote into user's machine
  • Hit Windows Key
  • Search for Computer Management
  • Run as Admin
  • Select System Tools
  • Select Local User and Groups
  • Select Groups
  • Double click Administrators
  • Select TITAN\LocalAdmin
  • Click Add
  • Enter user's name
  • Click Check Names
  • Click OK

 

How to check to see if user's local admin access has been granted:


  1. Restart user's machine
  2. Once restarted, check if user has local admin access by running CMD as admin 
  3. If machine does not prompt to enter username and pw, then user has local admin access 


If it doesn't let the user use their admin creds after all this, make sure their password is up to date


  • There is a setting where they can still login to Azure with their expired password, so if they say they can still login to Azure, double check this setting


 

Technician must monitor user's actions during entire window of temporary local admin access.
