Ed de Vries,

I hope you have included guest user account in your Configuration.
The easiest way for you, I think, to check the guest account settings would be using "User Accounts" control panel applet (or browse
to it from Computer Manager). Check if the guest account not disabled there.

Also, open the latest updated XPe docs locally and search for "Customizable Security Settings" topic (funny but I couldn't find the
topic online in XPe product documentation). There will be some settings related to guest account that you can set up using MMC
console security snap-in (also read there how to include the snap-in into your image).

Regarding the registry value. It is possible (most likely) getting overwritten by some XPe component. Unfortunately, I don't know
which one.
I'd suggest you to set the registry either through your own component (create a FBA Generic Command with very late FBA phase set) to
import an .reg file, or just manually import the .reg file at run time and see if it helps.

you help me further?
> One other thing: I added the registry key you mentioned, but on my target, the setting is still '0' after FBA. I put the registry
setting in the "Extra Registry Data", following the "project.slx" tree start. Is it overwritten by some component? It's not clear to
me.
