Pop-up window when you login to you workstation?

[pantera8]

Hello,

I am wondering if there is any way to create a pop-up box when you login. I need to remind our employee’s that when they are using company resources that they need to follow our guide lines. Also in the box a link that can take them to our company polices and procedures. I need this box to popup before their desktop actually comes up, so they have to click “yes” before they can continue.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

You can use the registry settings for Legalnoticetext, which you can find more info on here

You can also do it by Group Policy
Computer Configuration-Windows Settings-Security Options
Interactive Logon - Message text for users attempting to logon

I'm not sure if you can add a hyperlink via this method.

Thank you this is great, but is there any way that I could set this for the whole domain? I have about 150 computers that need to see this. Maybe in the GPO?

Thanks for all your help.

Yes, create a GPO thorugh AD Users and Computers. On the security tab, apply the group policy to the necessary users.

Definately go with the GPO. My method is for a small application.
