You can insert a registry entry that will prohibit the windows password
prompt.  Use regedit and goto
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Network.  Add a new DWORD Value and name it DisablePwdCaching (Note: This
value is case sensitive!).  After you have created the new entry,
right-click it and modify the data value to 00000001.

This has worked for us in computer labs as well as faculty and staff
offices.

Subject: Remove Windows Login


We are on a Novell 5.1 network.  After our students log into Novell, up
comes a Windows log in screen with password.  Rather than escaping or typing
the password in again, I would like to remove the Windows login password
requirement/option .  Does anyone know how to actually remove this as an
option when students are using a public machine?
