Jon,
Have you taken a look at Pre-Login agents?
<http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2005/tn2083.html>
<http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/PreLoginAgents/index.html>
I have no experience with this technology, but from reading the
technote, this seems like something that might help you out.
regards,
douglas

In a lab setting, during the day we'd like to push news and other
stuff into idle computers' screens, as they sit at the login window.
There are some older hints around for running the screensaver as
root through cron, but could there be other ways to get a
composition into that space? ( http://clc.its.psu.edu/Labs/Mac/Resources/psuscreensaver/psuScreenSaverInfo.aspx
)
As an exercise, I tried adding a QC view to the loginpanel NIB file,
but (probably due to security) that doesn't work - it just prevents
the nib from loading. Additional windows added to that NIB don't
seem to load, either. I'm not too experienced in Cocoa, so perhaps
there's a way around that.
Any other ideas for a potentially simple solution?
TIA,
Jon
