Hi all,

I was just thinking. Is it possible to execute a script before youre login?

So that you can check if the domain controller is up,
so no. remove the login security. So yes active the security

Normal in win9x can you press esc to "close" to login box en go to windows

We have disable that, so that you have to login with a username and password

Win9x and secure is an oxymoron. You need to use the word NOT in between.

An "oxymoron" is when you use (typically) two words with opposite or incongruous meanings to emphasise one of them by contradiction.

Hmm. That probably doesn't explain it much better

Hang on...

Google has some links to examples: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oi=defmore&q=define:Oxymoron

Don't feel stupid, the english language has lots of words invented or borrowed just to confuse Johnny Foreigner, a hang-up from our Imperial past.

Hell, even we native english speakers can't agree on the spelling or meanings of words.

With XP and 2k(3) servers you can define startup, login, logoff and shutdown scripts via GPO's.
- startup scripts run when computer boots ( before the CTRL-ALT-DEL dialog.
- login scripts run at user login.
- logoff scripts run at user logoff.
- shutdown scripts run when shutting down the computer, after the logoff script.

sure you can define them.
but have you actually verified that XP as client has anything to do with the OS'es he is talking about?

Additionally, you can set policies in Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 that require a domain controller to authenticate the domain login by disabling the caching of domain accounts/passwords.
