Log with antoher windows account

H

Hugues Perron

Hi,

I'm working for a costumer who runs MS Project Server under a Novel Network.
There is also a Windows network under. The users are member of a windows
domain (lets say DOMAIN_A) and they log to the Novel network with their
Domain\User identification. For all kinds of reasons, when they open their
windows session, they all use the same user MachineName\user2000.

When the users want to log to Project Server using their windows account the
login script uses the account MachineName\user2000, which is not a defined
user in Project Server (and won't be). I would like to know if it's
possible to change the userid used by the login script (I mean switch from
MachineName\user2000 to DOMAIN_A\userid) . I know they could use the option
"log using another windows account" but it requires a SSL connection, wich
they don't have. It's they same problem loging in Microsoft Project, they
would like to use another windows account.

Thanks

Hugues Perron

Hugues:

What happens if you set authentication options in custom security level in
Internet Explorer to prompt? Can you then logon using the correct account
structure?
