Quick Reference Guide

Logging on

You can log on to your thin client either automatically or manually.

Automatic logon

The default for the XPe-based thin client is automatic logon. The
administrator can use the HP Logon Manager 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.

To save changes, be sure to disable the write filter cache or issue the

-commit

command anytime during the current boot session. See

“Enhanced Write Filter Manager” on page 26

for information about

the write filter and instructions for disabling the write filter. Enable
the write filter when you no longer want permanent changes.

Enabling automatic logon bypasses the Log On to Windows dialog
box. To log on as a different user while auto logon is enabled, press
and hold

Shift

while clicking Start > Shut Down > Log Off. This

displays the Log On to Windows dialog box and allows you to
manually enter the logon information.

Manual logon

When automatic logon is disabled, thin client startup displays the Log
On to Windows dialog box.

Type the logon information in the User Name and Password text
boxes. Note the following:

For a user logon account, the factory-default user name and
password are both

User

.

For an administrator logon account, the factory-default user name
and password are both

Administrator

.

For security purposes, HP recommends that you change the
passwords from their default values. An administrator can change
passwords by pressing

Ctrl+Alt+Del

to open the Windows Security

dialog box, and then selecting Change Password. You cannot change
the password when logged on as a user.
