changing the network logon screen , HOW?

[itsfisko]

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me how to change the picture that you get when you logon to a networked XP computer? I would like to customise this to show that you are logging on to our school network. Ie:- changing the picture to one of the school and perhaps even the wording "welcome to .....school"
Also ( I know I want everything! )how can I lock this dialogue box to the centre of the screen to stop pupils hiding it up one corner?
Thanks for any help I Some lead, some follow....I just Hope!

I know it can be done under NT, but I'm not sure under XP. From a security point of view, be carefeul not to use the phrase 'Welcome to...' as this has been used dispute the illegality of accessing a system by unwanted visitors.

Hi,

If you are using windows 2000 network you can run login scripts from domain. and if u install scr55en.exe this exe on client machine then u will be able to get "internet explorer" view for the login script. Then u can call ant bmp or text in to your login scripts nad this will view in Internet explorer.

This works fine for me.
