| Logging in automatically and locking Is there a way so that I can turn on my computer, Automatically logging in my account and then locking itself? The idea is that I can use Remote Desktop even if Waken up from LAN Thanks |

| Re: Logging in automatically and locking I presume by "locked" you want a screensaver to kick in and require a password to get back in? See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811329/en-us Note that the ScreenSaveTimeOut value is in seconds. Set it for 1 second. Now, in Display Options, Screensaver tab, check the box that requires password on resuming. Now when the machine boots, the screensaver immediately kicks in and requires a password to access the system. Set your power options to turn off the monitor after one minute. -- Gary S.
