Is there a way to have multiple domains in the drop down list on the login screen? I have XP Pro, and Win2K notebook users who login to three diferent domains. The user ends up with three profiles, three desktops, three 'My Doc's' folders.......
Its a PAIN!
I have overcome some of the problems, but would like to make the domain switching process less involved. If I could automate the joining the domain process, or make the list show three domains, that would be great.
Any suggestions?

The only way that multiple domains will show up in the log-on screen is if Trust relationships have been created between your domain and the other domains.

Take at look at NetSwitcher (www.netswitcher.com). It may solve some or all of your problems

My experience has been that if a user connects to multiple domains that the drop down box will retain all of the domains that particular user has accessed. I have never had an issue with multiple domains not appearing in a drop down box after the user has connected to them.
