Currently I have to log onto my PC (running Vista Business Edition) and then (when I first need something on the network) log into my network domain (specifying the domain). The passwords are currently different. Is there an easy way to securely change it to only require one login? Thanks, Alan |

If you are not joined to the domain then I'm pretty sure you will always be asked for authentication the first time you try to access an active directory domain resource. You can try caching the domain credentials but I haven't had a lot of luck with this. See the second post in this thread. http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.networking_sharing&tid=07cb9d34-7259-445c-bf57-c3fb7650fa5a&cat=en_US_9CA88DDB-D18D-FA0E-A366-6E527B0FBA67&lang=en&cr=US&sloc=&p=1 -- Kerry Brown MS-MVP - Windows Desktop Experience: Systems Administration http://www.vistahelp.ca/phpBB2/ "Alan" <jalanthomas@verizon.net> wrote in message news:3e5f7574-def0-4dc3-814e-c600b83c5b8e@d1g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... > I think the difficulty is that my computer is in its own workgroup, > and I`m actually connecting to a proxy server. > |
