Title: Autologon NT4
Post by: Anonymous on August 08, 2002, 04:44:45 PM

I\'d like some NT4.0 workstation machines to bypass the CTRL+ALT+DEL logon screen and just do it.
I\'ve tried making edits in the registry and it works once but on the next reboot it the edit is restored. I tried using tweakui to do it as I figured maybe it did a little something extra to the registry, deep down I knew it wouldn\'t work, and I was proved right. Also, I\'d rather not use any config software such as this because of the situation the machines are going to be used.
NT is the only choice I have for an OS.
Any suggestions?

I have seen this with NT4 as well.
The solution was to do a clean install.
Then change the registry.

It does work.
