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?

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

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

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 can run 'CMD' to get a command window and type: shutdown -s -t 10
it'll shutdown in 10 sec. Or
type: shutdown -r -t 10
and it will shutdown and restart.

It's a way to make interpreted software the norm in place of compiled
software. Dotnet is a kind of interpreter, and programs written for it
don't contain machine code, but some kind of tokenized code. The idea is
that the interpreter will check to make sure the app doesn't do anything
bad. Since compiled apps are still allowed, and they can be malware, I
guess the future MS OS will eventually move to not running machine code apps
at all.

I don't see why it's needed. Remote Desktop and VNC both allow remote
login.

Login isn't the issue. Me, covering all possible scenarios, want to
do a remote reboot, and then be able to re-login. If the machine is
stuck at "enter password" you can't.

But how can it be stuck there? At the login prompt you should be able to
enter the password.

Via remote connection, you lose the remote connection during reboot,
so you can't enter the password since you are not "connected".

Artemus suggested...

using Tweakui to set that up, works just ducky.

Must be a limitation of the remote software. LogMeIn and others I use
always let you log in because the software starts before login.

With the autologon, anybody can get into your PC when you're away.

Neeerp. I 'hain't talking about how it's done, but there's a hardware
firewall between the machine and the Internet, so not from the outside
world. Locally, I could care less, there's only me and my wife here
:-)

Locally is what I meant. I know it isn't open to the internet. I thought
maybe you'd have a bunch of grandchildren snooping around sometimes.

Only when I'm here. And this PC is "always on" anyhow.
