I'm not concerned about the computer's shares. I'm
speaking about a person physically logging onto this
specific PC/console.
They are given a choice at the Log on to Windows
screen "Log on to [pull-down menu]"; our workgroup (which
is managed by our NT 4.0 Server) is allowed as a choice in
this pull-down menu. If they are recognized as a user
defined in the NT Server, this physical windows 2000 PC
will allow them to log on to it, even though they are not
defined as a user in the PC's User and Password settings.
Is there any way to stop this?
