Re: How do I login a user?

I would not condition a logoff to a new and different logon.

Give the user at least one bit of info that lets him/her take
(temp) possession of the machine. Something to identify with.

Like they do in public libraries.

Thereby liability boundaries are interatively set, recognizable, loggable.

This is something everybody understand.

Don't treat your users as wasters of electricity on reboots.

The don't like to be treated as such.

The are people, the most precious resouce you have, they are not
numbers or string variables.

If he/her working on that terminal requires more than looking at it,
he/she will definitely understand and appreciate.

For instance

Police in DUI cases need evidence and records, they are not supposed
to book someone from a mile away on leaning. Even when they know the
person or the person has a related prior record. Get your digital habeas corpus straight.

That is at least the way your moniker

I want to use a script to login a user. The script would run whenever a remote user logoffs, so I'm attaching it to gpedit policy on logoff scripts. Can this be done, and is there sample code?

Remote desktop (rdp) user logoffs.
The logoff script from gpedit.msc runs.
**That script logs on local version of that user (i.e. same name and password) if remote desktop user isn't logging off as part of a computer shutdown.

Thanks.
