Whenever my TS users logon to a server it fails due to the server login is
automatically populating the Domain drop-down to the local machine. Then
after the timeout period and a failed logon attempt they can change the
Domain to our domain and then they can successfully login. It only happens
when they login to my terminal server nodes (since RDP 6 won't connect to my
virtual farm name, separate posting in this forum). Where do i force the
logon to authenticate to domain login and stop the default local logon to the
server?

i am fairly new to this environment and not sure what policy to set to force
logon to the domain.
 
On the terminal server open regedit and go to
HKLM\software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon and change
teh DefaultDomainName to the appropriate value.

Thanks! that worked well

Any chance you have an idea on my other post called "RDP 6 and Terminal
Server Farms"

This is an extremely critical issue since we are moving to all Vista
machines next year that runs RDP 6 and we have several different terminal
"farms"
