Right: If it also applies to Admin accounts, I'm not interested, since
I wanted TS clients to only have the "Log off" button in the Start
menu, and nothing else. Not very practical when you're logged on on
the host as admin :-)

Let me reverse the problem: why are you hesitant to create a
domain?

Not my decision. Over here, they think setting up a domain is too
complicated and turning the network into something too big for your
needs. Hence the few servers we have are all set up as workgroup
servers in the same workgroup. Stupid, I know.

Thanks for your help.
