Windows Server 2003 Fast User Switching

[coolio191]

Okay, everyone, I've figured it out (how to enable xp logon and fast user switching in server 2003)

Click Start >> Run >> Type MMC Select File >> Add/Remove Snap-in... >> Add >> Group Policy Object Editor >> Add >> Click Finish and Close then OK

Navigate through >> Local Computer Policy >> Computer Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> and select the System folder

Then go into Logon

Then click "Always Use Classic Login"

Then click disable.

Then click OK and then exit.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think this works 100%... while I was able to successfully change back to the Windows XP login screen, as soon as I changed to a different login theme, it reverted back to the Windows Login Box.

I think I heard someone else say they had the same thing happen when they try to change the theme.

Anyone know for sure?

thanks

I gave it a try. No good (N)

Oh, I forgot something. Use TweakNT to chnage it to XP PRO (you'll have to re-activate) and then use StyleXP to manage your logins

[coolio191]

now it should work

Wow, converting it to XP... why not just install native XP from the begin with?
