anybody knows how to not alow "escape" when that Netowrk logins appear ?

so, if no valid login is made, then wont have access to the pc ...

that's when you hit esc, you use the pc without logging on the net, and the only way to avoid this is Win NT, what i dont like ...

thanks

Put this in a .reg file and run it. It will require network logon to access the PC.
:
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon]
"MustBeValidated"=dword:00000001



Good Luck

Exactly. That will prevent users from pressing the ESC button or CANCEL. But, remember. If you need to boot into Safe Mode without Network support, you will not be able to gain access to the system. This is the downside to this method. If you really don't want this, you will need to upgrade to Windows NT/2000.
 
Chris,
I hope you were talking to me!
He is right you will not be able to get into anything without being logging on to the server and the only way to disable it is to change the last value to 0 and run in Windows off a safe boot.

ok .. but lets assume i havent a networked validated login ...
when i use those passwords, the win9x saves it in the disk, right ? so if there's not a networked-way to get those information ( for validate login and pass ), so it'll use the disk for it and i'll then log even without the network ...

is this right ?

i dont have a network, or ... i have, but it's at home, with no pc as a login server ... i just dont want people to use it without my permission to ...

If you don't have Miscrosoft Network installed it won't work. The best way I have seen is to put a link to your screen saver in your startup directory and password protect it. This will make it run as soon as you get into windows and lock whom ever out. Make sure the link is part of the base profile.

Otherwise go to win 2k!

i do have Microsoft Network, ok ? it's a small lan there hub etc ...

hey ... i tried Aureius' code ... and it works fine ... but ...
yes .this but ...

look, it does need any NT domain for resolving the login user and pass and this is my problem ... is there any way to make this without NT domain ? i register the user in the windows user panel and it takes the info about login and pass from that ? those .PWL ...

i'll then make a linux box running samba for validate win logins but it for some time at future ...

so ... is there a way for this ? or anywhere for reading about this ?

thanks
