    XP autologon on domain

    Is it possible to have XP autologon if they are on a domain?. I'm unsure as I've never encountered the need to do this before.
    DC is samba so XP side fixes please.
    Thanks in advance.

    Code:
    Option Explicit
    Dim ws
    Set ws = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    
    
    	Dim strKeyPath
    	strKeyPath = "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "AutoAdminLogon", "1", "REG_SZ"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "AutoLogonCount", "1", "REG_SZ"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "DefaultPassword", "password", "REG_SZ"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "DefaultUserName", "Administrator", "REG_SZ"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "DefaultDomainName", "domain", "REG_SZ"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "AltDefaultDomainName", "domain", "REG_SZ"
    	ws.RegWrite strKeyPath & "CachePrimaryDomain", "domain", "REG_SZ"

    Have a look at:
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sys...Autologon.mspx

    It's a sysinteranls program. The advantage if this is that it doesn't seem to store the password details in the registry - not that I can see anyway. You can use the command line too.
