Guest Peter Quiring Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 I have a Win2K3 Server and we need to keep the administrator logged in 24/7 365. But Windows is auto logging off admin every night. We run a few stand-alone server apps that do NOT run as services. (billing and proxy). How can we disable the auto log off feature that must be enabled somewhere? No need to worry about security since the screen saver will protect the admin account. Currently we need a supervisor to visit the office every morning before any of the workers can start !!! Please help, Thanks.

Maybe one of your admins setup a auto log off mechanism? -- Jabez Gan Microsoft MVP: Windows Server http://www.msblog.org "Peter Quiring" <pquiring@gmail.com> wrote in message news:%23nTWQ0ouIHA.420@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >I have a Win2K3 Server and we need to keep the administrator logged in 24/7 >365.
