As it is, it decides whether to create a local account based on whether
you join a domain or not. I don't see why it can't just *ask* you
whether you want it to create a local account or not...

Uh, didn't this thread start out with "M$ doesn't document things well

use the resource kit, but not the resource kit itself.
