Hi Kenneth,

if these machines are in the domain you could either use a domain account
for the guest account or the method outlined here:

Hi Kenneth,

the reason is that MCMS does not impersonate this user. It just uses the
string of this user when no user is given and later there is a string
compare of this user against the value in the rights group.
So the DC is never contacted to see if this user is enabled or not.

Cheers,
Stefan
