On windows 2003 server, how do I give a user account the permission to join
the domain but without making it a domain administrator?

By default, Authenticated Users in a domain are assigned the Add
workstations to a domain user right and can create up to 10 computer
accounts in the domain. You can configure this security setting by opening
the appropriate policy and expanding the console tree as such: Computer
Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights
Assignment\
