RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2000 startup screen

[Wright, T. MR NSSB]

Title: Message

James,             That is an interesting approach to the problem.  The only thing I see in Russ’s case is that if the execs don’t like having to click ok to the Legal notice, then they must surely have had him disable the CTRL + ALT + DELETE requirement since that is 3 times as much work as having to click “ok” 8-p   -Tim   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 7:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2000 startup screen   Russ,   Sorry about that...an idea...you can have a legal message integrated into the CTRL+ALT+DEL bitmap...   What you could do is use reshacker http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/ , get an MSGINA.DLL from a machine of the same type and service pack that you are using and amend the: "bitmap file 1033 image". You then need to intergrate the "new" msgina.dll file into your install i386 dir, you may have to extract and compress cab files here. If you want to head down this path ping me off list and I can help you out...   James   -----Original Message----- From: Rimmerman, Russ [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 6 February 2004 9:45 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2000 startup screen That's legal notice caption text which our top execs didn't like because they had to click "OK" (its so difficult!) So now we're replacing the startup splashscreen with a legal notice BMP.  I know which registry key does it now in Winxp and win2k, but I am trying to see if I can use a JPG or if it MUST be a BMP. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 5:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2000 startup screen Russ,   As Kathrine advised or registry entry, see below...your choice: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00   ; Add Legal Notice Caption & Legal Notice [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "LegalNoticeCaption"="WARNING -  DODGY AUTHORISED USERS ONLY " "LegalNoticeText"="Any unauthorised access or use of this workstation is prohibited and could be subject to claims for damages and/or penalties at law.  To protect this system from unauthorised use and to ensure that it is functioning properly, activities on it are monitored and recorded and subject to audit.

Now, I've been asked to replace all the Windows 2000 and XP startup splash screens (the one you see in the background when you hit ctrl-alt-del. We're going to have our legal notice there since our top dogs don't like the legal notice GPO.  Question is, is there a GPO for this, and if not, is there a registry entry or something we can automate on login? I know XP's solution is here http://www.updatexp.com/tip12.html What about Win2000?  Any easy ways to do this? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This e-mail is confidential, may contain proprietary information of the Cooper Cameron Corporation and its operating Divisions and may be confidential or privileged.
