Interactive logon: Require Domain Controller authentication to unlock

Logon information must be provided to unlock a locked computer. For domain accounts, this security setting determines whether a domain controller must be contacted to unlock a computer. If this setting is disabled, a user can unlock the computer using cached credentials. If this setting is enabled, a domain controller must authenticate the domain account that is being used to unlock the computer.

Default: Disabled.

Important

This setting applies to Windows 2000 computers, but it is not available through the Security Configuration Manager tools on these computers.
