Add new users to groups.

I'm trying to administrate a Windows XP system and I want to automatically add any new (non-administrator) user I create to a usergroup. Is there a way to do this?

My end goal is to have any user I create have the ability to connect through Remote Desktop into the machine. So with the aforementioned approach, I'd like to add every user to the "Remote Desktop Users" group.

The other approach that I can't get to work is add the group "Users" to the "Allow logon through Terminal Services" policy (in gpedit.msc -> Local Computer Policy>Computer Configuration>Windows Settings>Security Settings>Local Policies>User Rights Assignment). For this method to work, it seems that there are other settings I have to configure as well, but I don't know where to find those settings.
