Hi Mark,

Thanks for the response.

What I did was go to Start...Programs...Administrative Tools...Domain
Security Policy. In this snap-in I went to Security Settings...Local
Policies...Security Options...Message text for users attempting to log
on. This is where I entered the text for the banner. I thought this
would pop up on each workstation when they hit Ctrl + Alt + Delete to
log on. Am I going about this all wrong. Should I be deploying a reg
file to all the users?

Thanks Again.
