Windows Forum / Windows XP / Security and Administration / March 2005Want Friendly Logon Screen after auto logoff
Running XP Pro on a networt, not a domain. I could swear that my machine used to automatically return to the friendly logon screen when idle for a short time. In order to resume what I was doing, I had to log back on. Other users could also log on. Now, I get a classic logon box that only allows me to log on, no other users. I want the computer to "lock" when idle and show the friendly screen with all users able to logon, or allow me to return to my work. I am the only administrator.

When I go to the cotroll panel. user accounts. chage the way the user logs on and off, it tells me that client services for netware has disabled the welcome screen and fast user log switching.

Gordon, our in house computor people are telling me that our network system is local intranet, but of course they have told us things in the past, and it seems more like a guess than an answer. > > When I go to the cotroll panel. user accounts. chage the way the user logs on > > and off, it tells me that client services for netware has disabled the [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > What sort of network are you using?
