Hi,
Go into Control Panel -> Users & Passwords
and click off "Users must enter a user name..."
Cheers, Craig

Sidoni, doesn't look like you got the right answer to your question. There's no file to get for geting windows (it works the same way on most windows versions) to automaticly logon. What you need to do is hack the registry a bit. Check this link out, it will tell you all about it.

This should help: Apparently the gui check box has been removed in one of the w2k security updates. I checked out Microsoft's site for the answer. Yes it is a registry hack. And here they are:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"AutoAdminLogon"="0"
"DefaultPassword"=""

Also here is the Microsoft web link describing this:
