Is there a way to limit workstation's to certain users in Windows NT?

Is there a way to limit who can log on to a certain workstation? I know i can limit users to certain machines, but can i limit machines to certain users, so computer1 will only allow user1 to logon to it?

In the local system policies you can set who has the "Log on locally" right.

yes, i should have mentioned that the workstation is on a network, so that does not work because it logs onto the domain.

I'm under the impression that should work even on a domain.

You should be able to place that restriction in their user account properties on the server.

He seems to want to go the other way, restrict what users can login to the PC not what PCs the user can login to.

That is to restrict a user to a certain machine. I want the machine to be restricted to a certain person.

write a log on script...if username = "so and so" and computername = "so and so" goto logoff. take advantage of the logoff.exe. this way if that user logs onto that machine you don't want him to log onto...it will automatically log him off. and in the policies set it up so that the log in script is ran before the windows screen is shown. something like synchronous log on or something.
