AutoLogin XP

Hi,

I need a script that will AutoLogin a user at first login (after PC boots)
So this script will be run once when the OS is installed.

DOMAIN:TESTNET
USERID:AUTOUSR
PASS:autoauto112

I still want to be able to logoff from this user if needed and login as
another user such as a domain admin, but when you reboot PC logs in as
autologin user.

I have been trying to do this in the registry but does not always work
depending on the last user to login.

Please help…

What exactly is the purpose of the auto-login after the initial OS
installation?

Re: AutoLogin XP

Auto Login needs to be Permanent and always occur for this client, I want to
set the details within this script so if it was used in the RunOnce cmd in
RIS .sif OEM install it would setup the AutoLogin details and then always
login as this user every time unless i logoff, but after reboot i want the pc
to Auto Login again.

If you get the registry settings correct, it will work everytime after a
reboot, though not after a logoff (it remembers the previously logged-in
user in that case).
