I see that in the User Properties, Account tab, Log On To...button, there is a way to restrict users to logon to only certain workstations.  This seems to be a great way of ensuring that visitors to a facility get very limited access.  Unfortunately I don't see that this feature can be controlled via a GPO and ultimately assigned to groups of visitors.  (Maybe one group needs email only, another email and a couple of other places, and etc.)  I also see that Microsoft suggests that network machines be protected via GPO on restricting network access in the User Rights Assignment under Access this computer from the network.  This seems like an awful complex solution to implement on thousands of machines just to service up some visitor accounts with limited access to the network.

 

What I was wondering is what other folks are doing with visitor access.  Does anyone have a limited access user account process and what are you using for this?  What I was hoping for was a logon to certain workstations that can be feed via group membership to determine logon ability.  Maybe a third party tool to enhance the abilities of GPO's?
