Feb 23, 2018 at 8:21 | comment | added | Jenny D | I think this long explanation would be very useful in the answer to the actual question. Any mistake made by one person can be made by another person, who may benefit from learning from the first one. | |

Feb 22, 2018 at 13:25 | comment | added | PatrikN | Thanks for the input @scotru! Maybe I should have contacted or mentioned you more directly from the beginning, but I'm glad you bumped in and provided that explanation. It can really be a mess, if display and usernames are different. I accepted your answer instead, since that was of course the best ;-) | |

The default administrator account is no longer a member of BuildIn\Administrators group is what I was going off of. That group is almost always mentioned in reference to the built-in local group in Windows land, IME. Though you're right, you didn't explicitly say anything about local groups, and I read that into your question and answer (which I realize is a lot more ambiguous than it first appeared, now that I've re-read them.).

Feb 22, 2018 at 6:57 | comment | added | scotru | Yea, definitely was a bad situation all around. Agreed there no local accounts on DCs. Did I refer to local accounts somewhere? I didn't think I had. I did incorrectly refer to the "Allow logon locally" docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/… policy setting as "Allow local logon" (it was close!) . I should have mentioned the origins in SBS (though it had been upgraded to Standard). Thanks for the feedback. | |
Feb 22, 2018 at 6:39 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | Wow, that's a total dumpster fire, indeed. I would reiterate that Windows Domain controllers don't have local accounts, so you may have thought you were logging in with a local account, but you weren't. Like servers, Windows domains have built-in users and groups, and I think you're just confusing the built-in local accounts with the built-in domain accounts. Also, your question doesn't mention SBS, which would have been an important detail, because SBS is a dumpster fire in its own right. | |
