I was actually just about to blog how I solved the local Administrators group management through group policy preferences, but before I started writing that down I thought let’s see if this has been blogged already on one of the well known Group Policy blogs, and so it was. Alan Burchill wrote a very good article about How to use Group Policy Preferences to Secure Local Administrator Groups.
