Changing AD group associated to Administrator Role

I am having a brain fart today.

How do you change which AD group is associated to the Administrator role?

Looks like any domain admin has rights, and i would like to specify a specific security group.

I edited my first post. Check out Chapter 17 in the Basic System Administration guide linked above for more information on permissions.

the VC logon, as some admins here should not have access to this, but already dont have access to the ESX box.

Anyone who has admin rights on your VC box is going to have the Administrator role by default.

You'll need to adjust your permissions using either domain users or local users on your VC box. Check out Chapter 17 in the Basic System Administration Guide.
