How to switch to another user on OWA

Guest

We have OWA 2000 for users to access the email remotely.
Some of users saved their logon names and passwords on
their laptops so that they don't need to type the logon
information. That is OK. But, how do they switch to
another user if they logon automatically? For example, I
logon myself as bob on my laptop while John wants to check
his email. (We don't want to disable autologon). Any
suggestions?

Perhaps I need some clarifications.

If you have user using OWA which is via the internet then you would want them to log into it using their credentials. This would provide additional security.

I was not aware that you could use the system login for your OWA login. You can do this for the Outlook client. But OWA is ran directly from the server not on the system and therefore should still prompt you for a password. This would allow any person to go to any system with internet access.

I would be interesed if there was a way to not be prompted for a password.

Yes if you try it on XP machine. If you check "Remember my
password", you will be logon OWA automatically next time.
I know the windows 2000 doesn't do that, but XP does.
