SUMMARY
The /noadmin switch has been added as an available command-line switch for Setup.exe in Systems Management Server (SMS) 2.0 Service Pack 2 (SP2). You can use this switch to prevent the Service account from automatically becoming a member of the Domain Administrators group.

You may need to use this switch in environments with strict security requirements. Note, however, that the Service account may need to have administrative rights to Microsoft Windows NT-based and Microsoft Windows 2000-based client computers.
