RE: How do I stop admin access from a laptop I worked on?

The laptop was not part of the domain. I could access the domain at any time
as long as I used the correct password. The problem was that since the
remember password box was checked, the user would have complete access to the
server unless I changed the password on the domain.
I followed your instructions via the control panel and that seems to work on
my test laptop but you have to log off first to make it actually remove the
info.
Thanx, Dave.
