Not necessarily. Unless your myriad of hoops definition is a little
different than mine. He should be able to use the local admin user
(potentially after unlocking it with a ntpasswd boot cd) to grant his
domain user local privileges. As for Power User vs. Administrator, it
depends on what other policies are applied. Power User is probably
good enough.
