Default shell

[G. Samuel Hays]

Does anyone know how to change the default shell on a windows 2000 box that
is on a NT 4 domain?

Thanks,
Sam

You can set the Reg_Sz string value of;
"Shell"="Explorer.exe"
to the full path of the program you wish to start by default. found at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
