Changing the Default Logon Domain in Windows Vista

After a great deal of digging around, I found the easiest way to do it.
1) Open a blank MMS
2) Add the Group Policy Object Editor
3) Leave the default of your local machine
4) Open Computer Config -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Logon
5) Change the Assign a default domain at logon to Enabled and enter your chosen domain.

If you have multiple domains and need to configure them on a more granular level, I would take a look at the following site for data on creating a logon script:
