Hello I used in past a computer (member server) with a computer account in several domains, so to have at logon the combo populated with all the domains (this was necessary because the domains are not trusted) and specially for problems 'hidden' where computers exchange security info by anonymous logon.
I have the same user,password,rights on every domain. I saved a batch script (mystart.bat) that run by scheduler with option "At user logon" , but it'possible make the same by other way (start->automatic). In the script I put net use \\DCindomainB\ipc$ /user:domainB\user password for every situations I put this batch in a private hidden folder so to protect the password. After I write a c program that makes all the previous things and 'hide' the passwords. I hope this is useful ... >From: "Steve Williams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Util/software to Log into Multiple AD domains for >Administration >Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2002 19:27:23 -0700 > >Charles that is exactly what I want to do, using native tools I want to be >able to do this, I have tried the netbios null session but in domains with >tight security policies this doesnt work, for example if I am logged into a >computer on DomainA, and I want to connect to and administer DomainB > >\\DCindomainB\ipc$ * /USER: username > >then it ask for password, If provided I can now do alot of things in here, >but this is clumsy in NT4 Symantec made a program that allows you to select >which domain you want to log into before it give you the login prompt, so >it stores multiple information about multiple domains in the registry >somewhere I was wondering if anyone has seen one of these for 2k Pro, we >all know about the remote control apps , but their is a lot of security >risk involved and I dont like the overhead, I just thought I wasnt surfin >the net enough to find it, but I guess one doesnt exist. thanks for all the >input > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Steve Williams > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, September 13, 2002 5:37 PM > Subject: [ActiveDir] Util/software to Log into Multiple AD domains for >Administration > > > I log into about 10 different AD domains for Nets that I support, has >anyone ever run into a utility that allows you to select which domain you >want to select when you boot up, their used to be one for NT4 Wks that you >could set up for multiple domains, I am tired of having to log in locally >then rejoining a domain to be able to administer it, does anyone do this ?? >Thanks in advance _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/
