Hide user who have locked the current session in message

[Rick]

Hi,

When I lock my server (CTRL-ALT-DEL and Lock computer), how can I hide
the message
"Only domain\user (user) or an administrator can unlock this
computer" ?

In fact, I would like to hide the user name for security reason ...

Thanks.

Probably can't without controlling physical access to the machine. Why
logon?

I have set in registry the option to hide the last Logon user and it
works fine, but the message still contains the user name in the
message where I lock the computer. As I have some processes running
not as services, I must only lock and not logoff to keet them
running...

It's just another layer of security ... like this if someone are
enable to reach this server, he doesn't know the user name who have
locked the server.


Thx

You can download the tools here. Also be aware that not all applications can
run as a service.

Instsrv.exe
Srvany.exe
