Disable 'Remember My Password'

[shamus]

Is there a reg hack I can use to get rid of the check box?

One way: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=229940

hmmmm - not quite session passwords
password behaviour

manage passwords on a domain

manage passwords no domain

The check box was probably created on the design of the form when the code was written.... I am guessing you don't want to block it remembering all passwords, just some?

I would like to be able to block it from saving any passwords. I have a lab of 16 machines that are just about exclusivly used by students.

Then CCT's answer may work..? Or blank their profile when they log off?

I'm just going to let Deep Freeze take care of it.

Thanks for the ideas.

Shamus: read through this article a bit and particularly note the advice about students trying to save files - just a caution so you get it going well.

Thanks CCT, haven't had time to look at that, but I found this at another forum and it looks promising:

Start


Control Panel

Administrative Tools

Local Security Policy

Security Options

Change "Network access: Do not allow storage of credentials or .net passports for network authentication" to Enabled.

I've been using DF for about 3 yrs. now. There's a notice I have that shows up before they log on warning them that unless they save to a floppy, burn it to a cd or save it to their server account it's gone... once the machine is rebooted.
But thanks for the heads up!
