Extended XPE Features

The Winterm XPE-based terminal’s operating system has extended features not found in
standard Windows XP. With the exception of the Citrix Program Neighborhood and the
Microsoft Terminal Server Client (Remote Desktop Connection Manager), and possibly a
special-order terminal emulation application if installed, controls for extended XPE
features are available only through an Administrator logon account.

Logging On

Automatic Log on

The default for the XPE-based terminal is automatic log on. The administrator can use the
Winlog applet in the Control Panel to enable/disable auto logon and change the auto
logon user name, password, and domain. Only the administrator logon account can
change auto logon properties.

Note

To save the changes be sure to flush the write filter cache (at any time during
the current boot session). See “Write Filter” in “Utilities and Settings” for
information about the write filter and instructions for flushing the cache.

The Log On to Windows dialog box is bypassed if automatic log on is enabled. If you
want to log on as a different user while autologon is enabled, log off while holding down
the Shift key. This will cause the Log On to Windows dialog box to display and allow you
to manually enter the log-on information.

Manual Log on

When automatic log on is not enabled (see above), upon terminal startup the Log On to
Windows
dialog box displays.

Type the log-on information in the User Name and Password text boxes:

·

For a user log-on account, the factory-default user name and password are both
User (enter in both text boxes).

·

For an administrator log-on account, the factory-default user name and password
are both Administrator (enter in both text boxes).

Note

Passwords are case sensitive but user names are not case sensitive.

Caution

For security purposes it is recommended that the passwords be changed
from the defaults. An administrator can change passwords by typing
Ctrl+Alt+Del to open the Windows Security dialog box and then selecting
Change Password. The password can not be changed when logged-on as a
user.
