I am creating an Unattend build for a customer and I am having problems
getting the build to default to Classic Logon correctly. Just using the
UnattendSwitch=Yes entry does not work, still comes up with Welcome type
login interface. When I use a reg merge file to set logontype=0 this works
but instead of getting the default blue background with the MSGINA login,
the background is black. Tried creating a local GPO using a reference
system and setting the Classic logon in there then including the files from
\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine and User in my unattend distribution.
This works exactly the same as the reg merge file with the black background
instead of the blue. Any ideas?

http://unattended.msfn.org/
and
http://unattended.sourceforge.net/
and
http://labmice.techtarget.com/window...all/deploy.htm
and
http://www.gc.peachnet.edu/www/wbeck/W2KXP.htm#Master

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, one of those or the
following sites/tips are bound to assist in some way.

What you want is the section in the "winnt.sif" or "unattend.txt"
referencing the Shell:

[Shell]
DefaultStartPanelOff=Yes
DefaultThemesOff=Yes

That will put you in Pure Classic Mode.

You also may want to look into making a default user profile:

You also may want to look into the normal tweaking sites like:

Good Luck to you!
