Hi all,

from my domain controller (w2k Ad server) I always get this kind of warning when I try to login with a "common user" user name: - The local policy of this system does not permit to logon interactively".
So what is the action needed to login as a user in the domain controller Pc's?
Thanks for your help

What do you mean by common user? Are you trying to log on locally or to the domain? Glen A. Johnson

Hello, leobis. What do you mean by a common name? A typical user, admin? Not sure I understand. Did you try what coolclark suggested? Glen A. Johnson

Hi Glen,

I mean Domain user;
I did what CoolClark suggested me, but rather than changing user right assignment from local policy I did it from Domain Controller local policy adding the "Domain-User" in the list, and now I can login with those users.
Is this correct?

Thanks again for your help

Be careful, that will allow those users to logon to ALL of your domain controllers. That's why I didn't suggest using the GPO. If you want those users to have that kind of access then yes that's the way to do it. Otherwise you need to set the local security policies.
