Does anybody know, how I can start applications after booting without or automatic logon ? This is necessary for my application, because it runs on a server without a user. Thanks, Robert. There are 2 Replies. Read action !

Sorry, your question was a little confusing… >> …without or automatic logon… If you mean, "without logon, or with automatic logon", we can work it out. You can set up an AutoAdminLogon to automatically log the system on as a specific user upon bootup. If, however, you meant without *any* logon, I don't have a clue. -Mark Read action !

Robert, You will need to write your app as a service. See the services overview in the NT SDK docs. If you have any programming problems with NT, ask in MSWIN32 (and pray for an answer). -Ronald- Read action !
