Zusammenfassung:A system, method, and program product for implementing logon assignments for users in a heterogeneous network are disclosed. Sets of logon assignments for a user for various platforms are defined and stored in a configuration server. The appropriate set of user logon assignments is selected, by either the configuration server or a client system, based on the user identity of the user and a software platform of the client system on which the user logs onto the heterogeneous network. The appropriate set of logon assignments is sent from the configuration server to the client system. The appropriate set of logon assignments is then implemented at the client system so that the user is able to use preferences and allocated resources specified by the set of logon assignments.
