    Single logon setting in GPO

    I want my users accounts to be set so a username can only be used to logon in the domain to one computer at a time. That is so a user cannot share her username and password and still logon themselves. Does anyone know of a GPO setting that will accomplish this? Thanks. R. Henson CCNA,CCAI,MCP

    yet another DNS issue

    I have had a similiar problem. I solved it by installing DNS on the domain controller and then pointing to the DNS member server address as a secondary DNS source. R. Henson CCNA,CCAI,MCP
