Hey everyone, hope all is well. I have another strange request that I was wondering if anyone has any insight on.
I'm looking for a way to use a variable to pull in the current computer name of a machine, but at login time.
In a standard 3 line Windows 2000/2003 server login screen I can login with something like:
server1\adamg
password
<third line for domain/local machine is grayed out>
Is there any way I can use a variable instead of "server1" up there so that the current servername is put in? I've tried:
%computername%\adamg
%userdomain%\adamg
and a few other things including double %%, .\adamg, and quotes in various places. If anyone wants an explanation as to why I need this I can go into that, but I've narrowed things down to the point where if I could pull in the current servername using a variable that it will give me everything I need. Any ideas? Thanks!
Adam
