This could be something to do with the rights you have on that computer, do you know if UAC is turned on? (user account control) if so you may have been added as a standard user and not an administrator which has access to changing settings to do with the computer

[tweester]

can you show me how to configure it? and if i logged in as another account will it be credited?

[mazuk]

If you go start>all programs>control panel> user account.

There should be a list of all the accounts for your computer and it will either say whether they are administrator or standard user, along there should be an option to create a new account presuming you have selected the administrator

[tweester]

yes i can create an account whther it is an administrator, power users,users, etc. etc.
but the problem is that when logging on as a standard user an error occured so the local user must change to administrator in order to effect the logging status on a domain server.. pls help!! what should i do??

[mazuk]

I'm unsure what is being asked now, looking back at the orginal post i think it is simply the fact it is an admin only function.

[tweester]

yeah, but the problem is how to log using standard user with limited access from it? i cannot logged in using that, but rather change it to administrator user in order to logged in.that's what i mean, can you pls help me?
