Default Background-Image not working on W2003

[Bruno Keller]

Hello,

with Win2000 we used the Reg-Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\UserOverride\Control Panel\Desktop

to set a Bitmap for the users, what they get as a background when the
logon-screen is appearing.

I made a update of the server to Win2003 today. I had to set the key new (as
the path was empty). But with 2003 the image is not visible. Even after a
reboot, or change against a jpg instead of bmp - only the grey background is
there when the logon box is there.

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Bruno

You can change it here:
HKEY_USERS\.default\control panel\desktop
"Wallpaper"

You might also have to set "TileWallpaper" to 1

HKEY_USERS\.default\control panel\desktop

"Wallpaper"

yes, that is working. But the desktop is now for all user. If i want to have
it for RPC-Connections i have to use the other key which is not working :-(
