Required logon to Win98

[kallikru]

Is there any way you can require entering a logon user/password to access windows 98, and not just walk around by clicking cancel on the logon screen - except by way of a bios password??

Unfortunately this is a standalone system - mother doesn't want homecoming son to mess with her machine - always screws it up on her.

Ok, I think I got it - found this at Axcel's ( http://members.aol.com/axcel216/axcel216.htm ):

>> One way is to disable the Cancel button in the Logon dialog box.
Just run Regedit and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon

Create the "Logon" subkey if it is not present on your machine: highlight the Network key -> right-click in the left hand Regedit pane -> select New -> Key -> name it "Logon" (no quotes) -> press Enter. Then add/modify a DWORD value and call it "MustBeValidated" (don't type the quotes). Double-click it, check the Decimal box and type 1 for value.
Now click the Start button -> Shut Down (Log off UserName) -> Log on as a different user, and you'll notice that the Logon Cancel button has been disabled. <<

Seems to work...
