Powershell ADSI tricks
# Add a domain user to a remote server local group, if your current user has admin over the remote machine
powershell -c ([ADSI]'WinNT://SERVER/Administrators,group').add('WinNT://DOMAIN/USER,user')
# Get all local groups on a remote server
powershell -c "([ADSI]'WinNT://SERVER,computer').psbase.children | where { $_.psbase.schemaClassName -eq 'group' } | foreach { ($_.name)[0]}"
# Find members of the local Administrators group on a remote server
powershell -c "$([ADSI]'WinNT://SERVER/Administrators,group').psbase.Invoke('Members') | foreach { $_.GetType().InvokeMember('ADspath', 'GetProperty', $null, $_, $null).Replace('WinNT://', '') }"
# Enable the local Administrator account on a remote server
