net logon

[JinBaba]

Hello Folks,
The problem that i am facing is that I want to Login as a user to a Windows damain say XYZ through command line..
In other words i want command line alternate to when computer starts and we enter user name then password and then select the domain we want to login(All in GUI)..

I found the net logon command mentioned @ the URL
                                                                  http://www.computerhope.com/nethlp.htm
and When i type it as follows on dos prompt
                                 net logon user1 123 /domain:XYZ

Following msg is shown
                                 "The Syntax of this command is
NET [ACCOUNTS | COMPUTER | CONFIG  ...USER | VIEW"

and nothing happens....

Hope i ll get the answer ...
Regards, JinBaba

The NET LOGON command is for older versions of DOS.  It sounds like you are trying to use the NET LOGON command from within Windows 2000/XP, which is not supported.
