Domain Login Screen
When logging Into Windows 2000 or or XP users are presented with three boxes User name
Password
Domain
The Domain box can be hidden or displayed.
I have just joined a Vista Business box to our domain and only two boxes are displayed.
User name
Password
To login to the domain I have to add the domain name before the user name eg
User Name office/paul.oconnell
Password 123456
This is a real pain
How do I get the three boxes to display so users don't have to enter the domain name?

This may not be your answer, but:gpedit.msccomputer configurationadministrative templatessystemlogonthere are some options that may help - specifically the default domain one.===Additionally the domain will assume the domain its a member of unless you use an account defined locally. the administrator account meets this criteria, but if you logon with jsmith, a domain account, you shouldnt have to specify the domain. not sure how this works in a multi-domain forest.
