rmusick Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 All of our Windows XP workstations have the Windows Logon Caption enabled. You have to click the OK button or press enter before you can get to the login box. This presents a problem for us when we want to remote AutoAdmin login the workstations. Is there a way that I can send a script down using something like Altiris, Landesk, SMS, etc that can do this. I heard maybe create my script as a service but I dont know how to do that. here is my code. WinWait("!!!WARNING!!!","") If Not WinActive("!!!WARNING!!!","") Then WinActivate("!!!WARNING!!!","") WinWaitActive("!!!WARNING!!!","") Send("{ENTER}") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the auto admin logon, just write the notice text back to the registry. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

Developers Jos Posted February 19, 2009 Developers Share Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Are you talking about the legal Banner? Maybe you could update the registry remotely before login on: ; Remove Manual Banner at logon ... will need to be added back manually RegDelete("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogOn", "LegalNoticeCaption") RegDelete("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogOn", "LegalNoticeText") ; Remove Banner at logon ... will be restored with the next policy sync RegDelete("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system\", "legalnoticecaption") RegDelete("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system\", "legalnoticetext") Just add the target host to the regDelete statements.

rmusick Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 yes its the legal banner. I have all of the information to strip it out and I have all of the information to add the AutoAdmin login. My problem is that even if you strip out the registry information for the banner you still need to some how send an enter keystroke or press the ok button for it to get by the banner.

If there is a banner, then you haven't removed them or they got put back. If they are enforced by policy, then they get restored when you reboot. That would mean temporarily changing the policy.
