Auto Logon ?

[djlax152]

After finalizing installation screen in the gui setup of XP My computer reboots and then when it boots back up it askes me for the administrator password. Is there a way that I can autologon the administrator so it can logon and start installing my start.cmd stuff?

Here is a copy of my winnt.sif file I left the paswword out for security purposes but i have it typed correctly in cleartext

Remove your Key too ...

After login succefully, have you got user "ASP.NET" in the user list ?

What's the version have you of Windows ?

[djlax152]

YEs i do have asp.net after i logon ith administrator, does he need to be removed for this to work, I am running Windows XP, and im not sure how to edit my post to take my key out

[Yzöwl]

change AutoLogonCount=1 to AutoLogonCount=2 or 3 or etc.

<Edit>

To sort the ASP .NET account add one of the following to one of your batch files

• net user aspnet /active:no
  net user aspnet /delete

Okay im going to try be back in 5 minutes

So does the asp.net account prevent the adminsitrator from autologging

@ master_mtz

I don't think he's missed it off, it's because he's removed the actual password before posting here!

@ djlax152

I'm glad to have helped

@ all

It's worth using this instead of simply deleting the account, it can be re-enabled at a later date if required.

• net user aspnet /active:no

For me, I don't have .NET FrameWork installed with my Window ... I use the last .NET FrameWork latest SP and the ASP.NET user is disabled/hided by defaut.

@Yzöwl: Fast & perfect helping
