Well, restricted groups policy can't just "add" someone to a group. Your
local groups will mirror what is specified in the GPO. In some cases
this is really handy because you may only want specific users/groups in
there and Restricted Groups policy will remove any user/group that is
not explicitly allowed.
However, in your case, you only want to add someone, so you will
probably need to make that change using a computer startup script.
The following link has some VBScript samples that should give you a good
start:

Subject: [gptalk] Add user to local administrators group
Can I use a GPO to add a user to the local administrators group on all
our pc's in our domain?
I looked at the Restricted groups setting but I don't know if this will
work. We have a windows 2000 domain.
Thanks for any help,
Matthew Johnson
