hi

While working on my MCP i saw something instresting on the sesions the microsoft profided us with. On the desktop the maneged to generate a special background for every user. just a blue screen with the tekst: logged on user: servername/username. i have looked in to it a bit and it's just a bitmap whit some tekst. the intresting is though that when i create a new user and login with it a brand new bitmap is created with the new username in it.

i looked in the policies but there is no login script. SO i was asking my self how did they do it. I aske arround but so far no one who could awnser this. Maybe one of you knows it.

I hope you can help and understand what i trieing to explane here.

When any of you got a question just put it in the reply

kind regards,

Niek Deurloo

Have you looked at the group policies? Sounds like a programmed bitmap. Any references to an xml file?

Imagine the power if you knew how to internet search
