Having a problem with an XP workstation where it seems to
be remembering the last site that it was on. The scenario
is where a laptop roaming user moves from office to
office. When he powers up at the new office he logs in and
it uses the AD location from the last site he was on. In
the reg it shows the correct information but using the set
command it is incorrect.
