Could someone please tell me is there a way in which you can automaticly log into a domain on a windows 95 PC.

Thanks
 
Hi darronb,

Here is a registry fix that will do this for you.

Find the following Registry Key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

Create a new string value called "AutoAdminLogon" and set it to "1" to enable automatic login.

Create a new string value called "DefaultUsername" and set it to username of the default user.

Create a new string value called "DefaultPassword" and set it to match the password of the default user.

Restart Windows and the system should automatically logon.

Hope this helps...

It works for 95/98/ME.

For NT/2000/XP do the following:

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

And add these values:
Add a new string value named 'DefaultUserName' and set it to the username you wish to automatically logon as.

Add a new string value named 'DefaultPassword' and set this to the password for the user entered above.

Add a new string value named 'DefaultDomainName' and set this to the domain of the user. Ignore this value if the NT box is not participating in NT Domain security.

Add a new string value named 'AutoAdminLogon' and set it to either '1' to enable auto logon or '0' to disable it.

For Windows 2000 the additional ForceAutoLogon setting must be enabled to stop the tweak from resetting on reboot.

Reboot, and you should now automatically be logging in.

cool, One more thing(I'm sorry that I'm totally leaching off someone elses post but) what if the default user doesn't have a password? like if you just hit ok when it pops up with "enter password to log on to network" Can I set the default password to blank or would I have to set a password and then put it in the registry?
