Default Add Remote Users to a Server Computer

Hello everybody,
I want to add remote user (located on other computers on a lan) to groups I have initiated on my server.
When I try to do that, the only location available shown to me is the server itself.... so what do I have to do??

Thanks for everybody.

That is pretty vague, more information is needed to even make a response.

Adding remote users for Windows accounts or for EqEmu users ??

Of course for windows accounts
The issue my friend is that I have a windows server 2008 on a LAN
and I want to create groups and add users from other computers on that LAN to these groups...
What I really face is the absence of the other location when I click Locations to add users from.
These are the steps i do:
Computer(right click)->Manage->Configuration->Local Users And Groups->Groups->(right click)->New Group->Add->Locations!
here is the problem!! No locations but the server itself!!!

The computers you're adding can't be Home/Basic editions of Windows, I don't think... if that helps.

I am guessing you are trying to add computer accounts to a domain server ? I do know you cannot add a computer to a domain with a home version of windows, and I am pretty sure you cannot remote into other computers on your network unless they are pro or better versions of windows.

If you are just doing this for access purposes, so that you are not presented with a login when accessing the server then you just need to add a local account with the exact same credentials as the workstation. Then you pass authentication and not presented with a login. If you are trying to do this all from a workstation that is not part of the domain, give it up because you cannot do it. That is part of the security, you are not a member of the domain.

So you are trying to add pro workstations to the domain ? Just making sure before I give you a step by step.
