Workgroup Listing Display Defaults

[Matt Wynne]

Anyone know of a quick way of reversing the default behaviour of the WG list for MCX? I need to change it to force a user to log into a particular/default group UNLESS they hold down the Option key rather than the other way round.

I know we could log users in and set it to remember but it’s a rather long winded for more than a handful of users. I’d have thought there should be a way to do this via Computer listings or even using the defaults command for com.apple.loginwindow but I can’t see it anywhere – it’s probably dead obvious but I’ve got a stinking cold and my brain’s hurting!

Any help much appreciated

Thanks Joel but they want users to actually be in more than one Workgroup (obviously not at the same time) but to log into one automatically unless they choose not to – I guess it’s akin to have auto-login on a client but if you hold shift down you get the user list up. They’ll just have to tell the user which one to log into first time and get them to select the remember option for future log-ins.

Cheers anyway.
