Environment

Micro Focus Client for Open Enterprise Server 2 SP4 (IR5)

Situation

After configuring AutoAdminLogon, the Client for OES is still presenting the network login prompt.

Resolution

Disable the Client Advanced Login setting "Prompt for network login during Windows AutoAdminLogon".

If this parameter is enabled, and Windows is configured to perform a Windows-only AutoAdminLogon as a specific user account, enabling this setting causes a network login to interactively prompt for eDirectory login information to be used in addition to the AutoAdminLogon-defined Windows login.

The corresponding regsisty value is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Novell\\Login\AutoAdminQueryNDS.

Additional Information
