How to auto logon via registry edit.

  1.. Start Regedt32.exe and locate the following registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

  2.. Establish your domain name, account name, and password, using the
values you would normally type when logging on. You should assign the
following values: DefaultDomainName, DefaultUserName, and DefaultPassword.

  NOTE: The DefaultDomainName and DefaultUserName values may already exist.
The DefaultPassword value may not. If it does not, create it. To do so:
    1.. On the Edit menu, click Add Value.
    2.. In the Value Name box, type DefaultPassword.
    3.. In the Data Type box, click REG_SZ.
    4.. Click OK.
    5.. In the String Editor box, type your password. Click OK and save your
changes.

    NOTE: If no DefaultPassword string is specified, Windows automatically
changes the value of the AutoAdminLogon key from 1 (true) to 0 (false). This
disables the AutoAdminLogon feature. This behavior also occurs if the
DefaultPassword string is specified but the password is left blank or null.
  3.. On the Edit menu, click Add Value. Type AutoAdminLogon in the Value
Name box. Click REG_SZ in the Data Type box. Enter 1 in the String box. Save
your changes.
  4.. Quit Regedt32.exe.
  5.. Shut down Windows and turn off the computer.
  6.. Restart your computer and Windows 2000. You should be able to log on
automatically now.

  Note that this setting only applies to the first logon. To enforce this
setting for subsequent logoffs, the administrator must configure the
following setting:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

  Value: ForceAutoLogon
  Type: REG_SZ
  Data: 1
