logon method not allowed suddenly
Hi all, am a school teacher and my school is trialling 1:1 computing with some students. Essentially, classmate pcs from intel with windows 7 enterprise. Yesterday at about the same time, all the students find that they cannot log into their classmate pcs, with the error "You cannot log on because the logon method you are using is not allowed on this computer. Please see you network administrator for more details."
Now this is very strange - the students have been using their machines for about 2 months to date without any error. How and why did they suddenly act up, altogether?
I took a machine that has not been issued out, and found that I could log in. Then I found that it is not connected to our wireless as we changed our password a few weeks back. So I keyed in the password, got connected, and logged off and log in again - this time it shows the error. At first I thought it could be a windows update messing things up, but this small experiment indicates that this is not likely as the wireless was connected only for a minute at most before i logged off. We did not change any group policies.
I also found that local accounts cannot work either. The only accounts working are network and local admins.
Any ideas?
