A. To set the default domain each time you log on, perform the following steps:
Start a registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe).
Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon subkey.
Double-click DefaultDomainName (or create this value of type String if it doesn't exist), and set the value to the preferred domain.
Double-click AltDefaultDomainName (or create this value of type String if it doesn't exist), and set the value to the preferred domain.
Close the registry editor.
