how do I accomplish the following then.....my laptops do not have a
connection to the network until after windows is completed loaded. I'm using
a radio frequencty serial connect that isn't available until Windows is
entirely loaded. So.....how do I get to my domain logon after the laptop is
booted???? If I log off I loose the serial connection. I can ping my server
after the laptop is completely booted.
Answers?????

I don't believe what you seek is possible. The closest you could come would
be to connect to domain resources with a known id/password on the AD domain.

Windows 2000 Server with Active Directory and Windows XP Professional
workstations......How do I have the laptop boot without having to login to
a
domain but if the user desires they can click on a desktop icon to bring
up
the network logon box. They more then likely will have applications open
and
they do not want to logoff.
