Hello,

I have Leopard 10.5.X in a windows domain.

Everything works except one thing.

Before i had the mac added to the domain i logged in with the autologon function. (So my LOCAL account logged in automaticly.)

Now when im in a domain i cant use the autologin.

Does anyone now how to setup a DOMAIN account as autologon account.

(So that the mac automaticly logs on with the DOMAIN user account?)

Kinds regards,

SuperSmash

You have to create a mobile account before your username will show up in the "Auto Login" option in Accounts.

You do this by selecting it in Directory Utility.
