Hi Thomas,

in the registry add an entry autoadminlogon, type REG_SZ, with value 1 under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE
 \Microsoft
  \Windows NT
   \CurrentVersion
    \Winlogon.

There is an entry DefaultUsername. You can add an entry DefaultPassword,
type REG_SZ, if you have a password for the user. If you set the entry
autoadminlogon, the user in DefaultUsername will be logged on automatic with
DefaultPassword. Then you have to set the permissions to the winlogonkey to
read for all users. If you don' t, you will be logged on only once. Second
time the machine will ask for user and password again.

Ciao

Heinz
