Creating a New User
Account
The Welcome Screen is non-existant in Windows
Server 2003, so you weren't prompted to make a new user name upon
first boot-up.
But worry not, its fairly simple to do, as everything
in this guide is! I would like to thank Donald Morris for this
new submission, replacing the advanced lusrmgr.msc
(Local Users and Groups) completely.

Go to Start
-> Run -> and type in rundll32
netplwiz.dll,UsersRunDll and press
enter. The User Accounts window will appear. Click on Add
and then fill in the necessary fields with your User name,
Full name, and Description. Click on Next
and fill in both password fields as shown here
and then click on Next. On the next wizard
box as shown here,
choose Other and select Administrators,
lastly click on Finish!
If you wish for a more advanced configuration, you can
always use lusrmgr.msc by running it from
the Run box again.
Incase you're wondering, rundll32 netplwiz.dll,UsersRunDll
is the same as control userpasswords2 |
| Now that we've
set up a personal user account, we want it to autologon
without the use of TweakUI. If you don't wish for this feature
please skip this step.
Make sure your name is highlighted
in the User Accounts window, as shown in the screenshot
to the right, and then uncheck the box
Users must enter a user name and password to use
this computer and then click on Apply.
If you did it right, you will get another window asking
for the password to use for autologon on your account
name as shown in this screenshot here.
Fill in both password fields, and you're ready to go!
Now log off and log in with your new account!
