</maml:description>

</command:details>

<maml:description><maml:para>Set the userWorkstations attribute on an AD user to restrict which computers they can logon to, or can blank the attribute allowing the user to logon to any computer. As part of the wildcard support in the ComputerList parameter, each computername is retrieved using an AD query, so the computer must exist in AD before it can be added to as a restriction on a user. At the moment, this function is destructive, meaning it doesnt keep any data that the userWorkstations may have held before running this command.

A limitation included with the introduction of wildcard support here is that the computer must already exist in AD in order to add it via this function.
