Hi All,

I have one computer on a network that needs to be "locked down" so only two users can log in. I know how to use AD to limit access for users, but not work stations. Is there a way to do this, or a local policy I can use? Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Don
 
Create an OU for these workstations and put the workstation objects in there.
Use the Computer policy in the OU to apply your settings to the PC's and set the loopback policy processing on to ensure it gets applied whichver user logs onto it.

Thanks, but is there any other way? Local Gpedit? Teak?
 
In gpedit, Computer Configuration, Windows Settings, Security Settings, Local Policies, User rights Assignment. 2 options - logon locally and deny logon locally. Can add/remove users/groups to/from these policies.
