Re: User account types



Absolutely.  You can do send unix command in ard and run it as root

If you do 'man dscl' in terminal it will show you the options.  To add admin rights it is -append. I'd imagine it's remove or something similar. The add command is:

dscl . -append /Groups/admin GroupMemberShip username

Removing should just be a matter of changing -append to whatever the correct option is (on my iPhone otherwise I'd give you a more specific answer).
