Network Login
I just joined a domain with a new Windows 7 computer but the log in is still like the Home Version with the cute ICON and user name. This allows me to connect to the network but File Synchronizing does not work as it did with XP Pro. It seems that I am still logging into the Computer as I did before joining the network. I need to be able to log in as ANY network user. I have added several network users in the Accounts section, but I still do not get a Network Login Screen at boot up.

You don't add users to the local accounts (user accounts), if the accounts exist on the domain. What version of Windows 7 do you have installled? Tell us more about your network setup.MCSE, MCSA, MCDST

OK. I just figured it out. On the old XP Pro when you joined the domain it required a reboot and then the Network Login AUTOMATICALLY came up. With Windows 7 Pro it does not do that. After joining the domain and rebooting the first time , you have to click on the "SWITCH USER" button then the "Other User". At this point you can get into the domain as network user and from then on when you reboot, the Domain Login AUTOMATICALLY comes up. Now I am synchronized with my User Redirected Folders files.
