hi all

i am using slipstreamed xp home edition.at the end of instllation before starting runonceEx,autologon is not working(as owner---home edition insted of adminstartor--professional)

iam uploading 2 pics have a looks.

and when i click ok its showing next screen.

iam not using any useraccounts.cmd or autologon.reg

pls help me

I think you need to run User.cmd at cmdlines.txt per the MSFN guide?

[COMMANDS]

"user.cmd"

"RunOnceEx.cmd"

EXIT

Then User.cmd

cmdow @ /HID
NET USER "MyName" /add
NET LOCALGROUP Administrators "MyName" /Add
REM Autologon first boot
REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Install\autologon.reg
EXIT

in this case two accounts r created.one as myname and other owner.

and exactly what shld be inside autologon.reg

How are you autologging on?

Looks like you are trying to autologon to the administator account but perhaps without a correct password.

this is my winnt.sif.and iam using no pass

This is the Autologon.reg I'm using by the MSFN Guide

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"DefaultUserName"="MyName"
"DefaultPassword"=""
"AutoAdminLogon"="1"

No Pass here either

If AdminPassword is set to blank, null, or not set, the registry subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\

CurrentVersion\WinLogon\AutoAdminLogon (controlled by the AutoLogon entry) is set to 0 (false), which disables the automatic Administrator account logon feature.

No password, no autologon into administrator account that you chose as in winnt.sif.

[GuiUnattended]
	AutoLogon = Yes
	AdminPassword = *

that mean we shld mention some pass in winnt.sif for autologon in admin account

Think what he saying is

[GuiUnattended]

AutoLogon = Yes

Delete that complete entry

I don't have it in mine either in [GuiUnattended]

If you want to autologon as Administrator once. Yes, you need a password. You can use AutoLogonCount=(a number) , if you want to logon more then once as Administrator.

sorry about the other night bmn I was just trying to get my thing started OK

ok now i understand.first login in admin account after which runonceEX runs, with these settings

[GuiUnattended]

AutoLogon = Yes

AdminPassword = password

and next login will be with those username and pass which we spcified in use.cmd and autologon.reg right?

Not actually with XP Home it starts with the name you tell it in users.cmd and the Autologon.reg

Theres no ADministrator in Home or at least its pratically invisible or easier to say unuseable. If you don't tell it then its "Owner"

You can simply disabled Administrator account logon. example:

[GuiUnattended]
	AutoLogon = No
	AdminPassword = *

Then you can do what maxXPsoft states for logon.

atlast my problem solved.thanq all
