We are currently changing everyone over to Novell 5.1. We were running Novell 312, and I could use tweakui to automatically login. I am unable use tweak with novell 5.1. Any ideas? I read a previous post on this subject, but it wasn't much help. Thanks in advance.

Sorry I can't help you with your current problem, but I am interested in your tweakui solution to the auto login. Some PCs are already logging in automatically, but others that I've reformatted keep popping up the login screen. I've tried setting up login in StartUp with the extension /cont, and it WILL log in, but an additional screen still pops up. Any help you could give me would be appreciated!

I am running Windows XP Professional with Novell server. I use the built in Novell Netware client which is 4.83
I also would like to have an automatic login since security is not a problem and it is a single user workstation connected to a our office LAN.
I'm interested in how Sandy has set up the login in the StartUp folder with the extension /cont, and how to possibly get rid of the additional screen.
In any event, I'm looking for a way to autologin the Novell client so that if there is a power outage, the machine will reboot itself and startup automatically.
