Is there a way so that I can turn on my computer, Automatically logging in

my account and then locking itself?

 

The idea is that I can use Remote Desktop even if Waken up from LAN

 

Thanks

Re: Logging in automatically and locking

 

I presume by "locked" you want a screensaver to kick in and require a

password to get back in?

 

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811329/en-us Note that the

ScreenSaveTimeOut value is in seconds. Set it for 1 second. Now, in Display

Options, Screensaver tab, check the box that requires password on resuming.

Now when the machine boots, the screensaver immediately kicks in and

requires a password to access the system. Set your power options to turn off

the monitor after one minute.
