Now I know that it isn't logging into the domain in the same context (as a few people have agreed) either way, because I have odd problems with applications when logging in with the UPN. I just wonder what the actual differences are...although for no other reason than to know, because I definitely do not recommend that people login this way. How this user even figured out that they could use the UPN is beyond me (because they are lucky to know what logging on means).

If you type in user@ the domain dropdown box is grayed out and does not apply. The login process uses the information after the @ sign for where to authenticate you, so as long as you are typing in a valid UPN you will get authenticated to the domain just like you do if you type in username, password and choose a domain from the dropdown list, Phil List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/
