By default users can logon to all domain computers except domain
controllers. When you check the Local Security Policy be sure to look at the
effective setting for a user right. The deny logon locally user right will
override the allow logon locally user right so be sure to check that which
by default does not have any entries. For domain controllers, the Domain
Controller Security Policy would have to be modified as those user rights
are defined there and will override Local Security Policy for domain
controllers. If you want to allow logon access to one domain controller, it
would have to be moved to an OU within the domain controller container and a
GPO configured for that OU to have logon locally configured to your needs.
All other Domain Controller Security Policy would still apply to the OU in
the domain controller container. --- Steve
