I log onto each machine with the machine name, when I boot up my computer, I
get a sign on screen with the user, the only user, I have setup on that
machine and it is, depending on the machine, P25, or 5205, or Sew or Carol
and of course I'm the administrator of each machine, they're all in my home
and there is ONLY one user on each machine... ME :-)
And Of course I know that users log on, not machines, but machines connected
to the network, not users!
