I have looked everywhere but can't find out how to do it. I want an account with a password that will autologon. This is easily done manually through control userpasswords2 and unticking the box marked users must enter a username and password to use this computer. It then prompts for the account you want to auto logon (in this case "Dan") and asks for its password.

But, how can I do all this through the unattended setup, or a batch file....?

Thanks in advance

This is the reg file I use for autologon

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 

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

Thank you very much JBM, that will do very nicely!
