A few of our users use windows XP home it can pre
installed on the laptop and voids the warrenty. but to
print or use the network they need to logon i have created
user accounts for them. Is there any way i can let them
connect to printer or network without entering a user name
and password.
 
Configuring a local user account with the same user name and password will
allow non-domain users to access domain resources. There are actually two
separate accounts, but the mechanism for providing integrated authentication
passes the username and password for the local user, which are the same as
those of the SID on the domain, and thus gets granted permission.

You can also define the printers as local printers (either LPR or native
socket). So, the users would be printing to an IP address and port # (you
need to get that from the printer)
