Can I autologin to Win2k server? Or does the security features prevent that? I took off the CTRL - ALT - DEL requirement in local policies. But cant find anything for auto login like in Wink2 Pro. Can this be done? Can a program be downloaded for it?.

Installing apps in user account with Win2k Server

HELLBRINGER
I was wondering. If you can make Win2k Server allow an administrator to give the computer a password and user name to install a program in an user account. So that way I don't have to login as an admin and quit all the current running programs.
