DC USER Q. 500PT

yes its possible but why?

with a DC you can log on to any pc that is joined to the domain with any domain account.
In a wg you had to create the user account on each workstation to do this.

Yes, but how are you going to manage email and such for a single user account used by many users?  Every workstation will retain settings that a given person has made to software.  When the next user logs in with the same account the last person's settings will be there.

Best to use individual accounts.

Coming from a hospital I can see the need for generic accounts in some instances.

Yes you can create a generic account, but you might consider roaming profiles with the "do not save settings on logoff" option enabled.  This will keep John from messing up settings for Sally since they use the same user account.

Sarbanes oaxley would have a field day with generic accounts ;)

Its a liability.  And the users will know there is no way to trace them making them more daring.

They would and so would HIPAA, however there are restrictions you can place on these generic accounts to put them into compliance.

We only allowed them to log into windows and access a terminal application for patient management.  Each person had a unique UserID for patient management, and the generic account wasn't allowed on any shares or the internet.

GOtchya, i was more directing that to questioner.  I figured being in a hospital you had something as described.

k, I have 20 Stations, those stations are use for a specific program only. I'm not using emails or anhything else. Just 1 program. It's an SQL program that connects to the database on my DC. all the windows log in are the same. The logins in my database soft. is diffrent but that doesn't tie up with the windows login.

Then the answer is simply yes.

so basically I want to have 1 user, that all the 20 stations will use to logon to the DC. possible?

definatly
you can use the same user account from any workstation.  You can have multiple logons concurrently too.
