3.1.5. Assigning a new user to automatic logon
If the new user is to be logged in by default, the automatic logon must be changed to match the new
configuration. This requires a registry entry to be edited.
Caution (from Microsoft)
“If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you
to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems
that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.”
Within the remote desktop window, in the Start menu, select Run..., type “regedit”, and click OK. Find
the key shown in Figure 7.
“HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon”
Figure 7 DefaultUserName Key
Edit the values DefaultUserName and DefaultPassword to match the user account you wish to use.
Change the DefaultDomainName to the new computer name.
Reboot the Gateway Module. Now that the operating system has been configured, the additional
software can be installed.
