Am I missing some setting?

I want to do a remote reboot.

Is there some setting such that ctrl-alt-delete reboots without
requiring entering a password?

How about just resetting your boot PWs to [null]?

Already is. But is stops there requiring hitting Enter :-(

WinXP Pro

I'm probably overlooking something obvious :-(

If it's the BIOS PW it needs to be set to no PW.
My XP Pro box boots to the desktop w/ no KB inputs so there
must be a setting to allow this. Don't know what it is tho.

Yahooooo! I should have remembered that... my Win2K machine is
already set like that! Thanks! Now I'm all set for remote access
(and reboot if necessary).

You're welcome.
