Auto Login User on Local Machine That is Part of Domain

I have a media center PC that is part of a domain at home. I want to be able to have a user login automatically on the local machine (localpc\user) instead of (domain\user) but I want to keep the PC as part of the domain so I can manage it from my server when necessary. After I joined the machine to the domain, the usual way of going into "control userpasswords2" no longer worked had the option of using autologin. Does anyone know of a solution for this?

Worked even better than I could have imagined!!!
Just in case any one is unsure reading this...
THIS DOES WORK WITH VISTA!!! (Business in my case)
But I had to CREATE the DefaultUserName Entry as well as the other two.
