Hi all, I think I have found the solution. The registry keys for Autologin are the same for Win-32 and Win-64. But when using a 32 bit Perl Interpreter on 64 bit OS, registry writes to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon are redirected to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon See also http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384232%28VS.85%29.aspx When using 64 bit ActivePerl on 64 bit OS, autolog.pl will be able to write to the proper registry keys and autologin takes effect. So I think in perl.bat the line ... set perl_msi=%Z%\packages\perl\activeperl-5.10.1.1006-mswin32-x86-291086.msi ...should be changed to something like... set perl_msi=%Z%\packages\perl\ActivePerl-5.10.1.1006-MSWin32-x64-291086.msi if %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=="x86" set perl_msi=%Z%\packages\perl\activeperl-5.10.1.1006-mswin32-x86-291086.msi Regards Gerhard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ unattended-info mailing list unattended-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/unattended-info
