XP Logon

I have a PC with about 20 users and I want them to have to log on each time
they use the PC. I do not want them to connect to the network, just this PC.
I was told but can't find that there is a way to set this up so the users
will get the usual Network logon screen but not actually not connect to the
network.

Rumor has it this can be done without using the User Accounts function in
the Control Panel.

Does anyone know how to do this if in fact it can be done?

Thanks in advance.

Place the following batch file into the Startup folder of the local All
Users profile folder:
@echo off
net use * /d /yes > nul
net use /persisten:no

You also need to make sure that the domain logon script for these 20 users
contains no share mapping instructions and that there are no other local
logon scripts.

Note that computer-savvy users will be able to make manual network
connections.
