Allow Users to install applications on their workstations

How can I allow certain users to install software on their workstations without adding them to the Domain Administrators group? I have them set up on their local workstation as part of the administrator group and power user group, when they try to load any software it tells them they do not have admin permissions. They have to log off of the domain user acct and log back in as administrator. Is there a way they can load the software from their domain user account instead of having to log on as administrator?

If you go to Local Security Policy and select Local policys and then User Rights Assignment all the settings are in there.

Cheers,

Log on as administrator at the local PC and add the domain users to the admin group.
If the domain is called DOMAIN and the user in the domain is called Steve, then the user added is called DOMAIN\Steve and not only Steve.
Hope this helps.

By assigned DOMAIN\USER_NAME local admin rights problem should be fixed as mentioned
