    Resolved [RESOLVED] Server 2003 - Login Screen

    When i log out of server 2003, it remembers the last username i entered. How do i make it so that it doesnt remember the user name, and it is empty for the next user to login?

    There's a local security setting that you can either set on the machine itself or set via Group Policy (you can do the same for XP workstations). One sec and I will find the exact policy key location

    OK got it, here is how to do it just on the local machine itself (assuming no GPO is overriding it):
    Start -> Run -> secpol.msc -> expand Local Policies -> click Security Options -> find the setting labeled "Interactive Logon: Do not display last username" -> double click it and change it to Enabled.

    If you need to know how to do it via Group Policy (GPO) then let me know and I'll explain it to you
