Re: Group Policy Lofon Script

If there is a local user account with the same name as the domain account, the computer will pick up the local account. For example, if you type "Administrator", it will default to the local Administrator. But if you type "Domain\user" the next time the user logs to the same workstation then the username should be there waiting for the password.

If they want to type a different user name, then the domain name should be below the input textboxes next to the label "Log on to:" so they type just the user name.

I'm going to plant this question here, since this thread seems to touch on
Group Policy login/off issues.

Vista (business ed) in a corporate domain. I'm trying to limit user access
to the local computer. Users have to enter 'domain\username' and password to
log into the network. I find that if a user enter his username (without the
domain\) and password, the user logs into the local computer, in spite of the
fact that there is only the Adminstrator account setup on the local computer.
Is it possible to stop users, who do not have administrator level access,
from logging into the local computer?
