[Ching-Lung]

Hi,

Is there any way to add a new user to local admin group
via C#?

Please advice, thanks!

Use the DirectoryServices library - something like:

DirectoryEntry objLocalAdmins = new
DirectoryEntry("WinNT://MACHINE/Administrators,group");
object oUserPath = "WinNT://MACHINE/Username";
objLocalAdmins.Invoke("Add", new object[] {oUserPath});

Check out the docs for the DirectoryEntry object, and IADSGroup etc in MSDN.
Can also be used to add domain users, use domain in stead of machinename for
the userpath.
