Ok, this logging on to locally is 1 solution.
but how good it is, i'm not sure....

(Sorry 'cause i don't got the original mail that was posted here.)

Example, how can you read your e-mail messages then if example, a very
popular program named outlook :) is what you use at work?
If it uses exchange server as usual, you have to be logged in to the domain
before it can be used to read e-mail... Am i right? (Or can this be changed
somehow?? i mean locally, not the server administrator :) )

In any matter, it would be very stupid to let the "example" outlook to
connect to the exchange server when logged to the "computer" account.

There are numerous other reasons i could list here.
Example is the possible logon scripts mapping network drives for you?
They don't normally exist in the computer account.

The same profile problem is little more difficult for administrators to
handle.

I might be wrong, but when you log in to some domain, the loginscript is
then executed. And it might be that obviously it is not the same for every
domain.

Are you in big corporation and domains are scattered troughout the world??

Well, i am sorry, that i don't know the real mail.
I hope i didn't lost the track completely.
