Quizplus · Accepted Answer

You should add John's domain user account to the Local administrators group on the server.
Key Takeaway: Right now John's account is not a part of the Local Administrators group. John's account could be added either to the Local Administrator's group or the Power Users group. To let John access the security logs with a minimal level of authority, you should add him to the Local Administrators group.
