spurious login screen popping up.....

[Alan Moorman]

I've succeeded in getting the boot-up sequence to happen
without it requiring me to log on.

However, I've noticed that there are still more than one
user, listed, where ever that is listed.

And, after the screen-saver/power-saver comes back from the
dead, it requests one to choose from a list of users. (Two,
in this case.)

How can I eliminate all but myself, in all aspects?

How did you get the boot-up to happen without log on? I want to do the
same thing.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Try this:

Start > Run > control userpasswords2

Remove the check mark next to Users must enter a user name and pasword
to use this computer.

Thanks, but I did that before I posted my question!

I thought that would take care of it.

Well.... I just found another thing to uncheck...

Screen Saver/Power/Advanced
"Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby."

I unchecked that, and we'll see if that does it.
