Remove Logon on WIN2000 PRO

If you don't want to use NT logon screen for authenication,you can bypass it

Open Control Panel,select Users and Passwords,remove the check from Users must enter a username and password to use this computer,click OK

Go into the Control Panel.
Double-Click User and Passwords.
Uncheck Users must enter a username and password...
click apply and now you don't have to enter a username and password. Just turn it back on when you are going to take it to work and uncheck it when you are taking it home.

Why not setup a 2nd account for home use. Talk to your administrator about it.

If you are logging on to a domain, you can't change this. You may be logging on at home to the local system or with cached account info from the domain but the machine belongs to the domain unfortunately, so the Microsoft-three-fingered-salute is there to stay.

I aggree with the above, it's in a domain and it belongs to it. You could dual boot but that's a pain. I wouldn't think your net admin would want you to bypass security.

Per MSKB Q234562 you cannot AutoAdminLogon a Win2000 machine to a domain. The Novell Client allows it, but that's a long way to go for autologon.

The Windows NT resource kit has a utility called autologon. This will work.

1)Select the Users and Passwords control panel (Start->Settings->Control Panel->Users->Passwords)

2)Select the Advanced tab

3)Unselect Require user to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete before logging on

4)Click Apply then OK

If not available the Administrator has the only right to make changes
