HOW DO YOU STOP Fast Logon Optimization

[q-mAN]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND: Computer Configuration\Administrative
Templates\System\Logon\ Always wait for the network at
computer startup and logon

This is for use in a domain environment.
If this is not used, then login proceeds ahead of actual
contact with the domain, using cached information.
If this is used, then login is a hard authentication
involving direct dialog with domain control.
Use is often desired on sensitive machines.

Here's the full way:

Start/Run/gpedit.msc

Then navigate to the following section:
Computer Configuration\Administrative
Templates\System\Logon\ Always wait for the network at computer startup and
logon

Double click on it and select Enabled

And if you want to be able to do "whatever" you want in a logon script, you
will need it as well.

Hi

You can put the following vbscript in a text file with the file
extension .vbs and then run it (double-click on the file):


Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
sRegValue = "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\" _
& "CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SyncForegroundPolicy"

oShell.RegWrite sRegValue, 1, "REG_DWORD"
MsgBox "Please reboot the computer"
