I'm not sure if you can prevent him from changing it, but iirc, you can have it already in the logon field by adding it to the winlogon key in the registry. Try adding his logon to defaultusername. Then all he'd have to do is enter the password.

I would like to prevent one of my users from changing his assigned Windows login name. All I want him to do is enter the password only in order to log on to our domain. Is this possible? The OS is Windows XP Pro and we have an Windows 2003 Active Directory domain.
