I've had this annoying problem forever on Windows 2000 GPOs and am
wondering if there is a solution.
I have created a GPO that renames the local administrator account on all of
our workstations using the "Rename Administrator Account" under Local
Policies -> Security Option. I apply this at the domain level.
The problem is the GPO also affects the pre-Windows 2000 logon name for the
domain administrator account. This causes no end of troubles since that is
the account name used by some service accounts.
First of all, why is this GPO for renaming a LOCAL administrator account
affecting the domain administrator account and second, how do I stop this
from happening?
Any ideas?
