matt, thank you for advice ! i tested that before without success using: todo.pl "autolog.pl --logon=1 --user=Administrator --password=not4u2know" in the same script.
basically all those script are installing hotfixes for xp, ie, mplayer in unattended mode with norestart switch but i have to restart to apply a hotfix for mdac2.8 after installing mdac2.8 with todo.pl "%Z%\scripts\xpsp1other.bat" (xpsp1 ships with mdac2.7). is there any limitation for autologon in case of a machine not in a domain ? may i have switched something "on" that prevents the autologon ? cheers andy -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Matt Hyclak Gesendet: Donnerstag, 7.
