Cole, The following requires my users to run the netlogon script & logon/logoff (or was it restart?), but it does just what you're asking. Pops up a message on Win2K & XP that users must acknowledge before logging in, even if 'autologon' is enabled. I added lines similar to the following in my netlogon.cmd: NET USE X: \\server\sharename REGEDIT /S X:\.scripts\legalnoticetext.reg I use the following in the legalnoticetext.reg file (Unicode text file): Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "LegalNoticeCaption"="Legal Notice - System Usage Policy" "LegalNoticeText"="Individuals using this computer system without authority, or in excess of their authority, are subject to having all of their activities on this system monitored and recorded by system personnel. In the course of monitoring individuals improperly using this system, or in the course of system maintenance, the activities of authorized users may also be monitored. Anyone using this system expressly consents to such monitoring and is advised that if such monitoring reveals possible evidence of criminal activity, system personnel may provide the evidence of such monitoring to law enforcement officials." That should do it. -- Lars -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
