Logon Banner

[Saul D. Frausto]

I need to create one of those banners for Windows 2000
machines, where after a user presses Ctrl+Alt+Del, a
message box pops up that displays a certain message, and
then they would click "OK", and then they reach the sign
in fields.

Any help on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

REGEDIT

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"LegalNoticeCaption"=""
"LegalNoticeText"=""

In addition to what Jack said, if you want to know how to do it via
gpedit.msc, check here:
