Thanks for replies.
Various pressures are at work here wanting IT to reduce the number of screens that a user sees during login, to zero.
The current Kix login script is extremely stable and has functioned without problems across all our platforms for over a year but should we require to change it significantly then we would expose information screens for that part of the script, like installing or modifying an application.
HR have some Company philosphy type screens that they want as wallpapers but desktop icons clutter the screens.
W2k has the 'show desktop icons' if active desktop is enabled but even this is not acceptable as it leaves the user able to effectively bypass the 'message'. So I need a way to remove desktop icons for a period long enough for the 'message' to be effective and perhaps even pop the same message up at some regular or irregular interval.
I would like to know how to schedule such things too!
