Boot Security (Intresting!!!) (W2K)

[siddharthc]

Hello Folks,
I have three tasks to achieve:

Task 1) I want to create a mechanism I guess could be an service which:
(a) Will be Activated and Executed when Windows 2000 Boots Up.
(b) Should do User Interaction BEFORE User hits Ctl + Alt + Del.

Task 2) I have my own Application which has a login security. I want to integrate it with Windows 2000 for Password Authentication, so that users need not be allowed to maintain different passwords. Username and Password provided should be Authenticated with the Server.

3) My custom Application would like to synchronize its clock with the Server and not with local clock.


Point No: 1) Is any or all of the above task possible?? If yes then how??, If not then why??.

Point No: 2) If anybody out there has any slight Idea for any task; please guide me or redirect me to accomplish it.

Awaiting Reply from all you experts out there.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Siddharth R. C.

Task 1 - If this is in fact a process or service you want at startup use the Resource Kit utility -install service application. Creates a service
Task 3 - Sync time. Create a logon batch file and use the net time command, i.e. net time command and point it at the server of your choice. On the server of your choice use the same command andpoint it to the domain controller.
Task 3 Need more info
