Caution
-
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 add support for
configuring logon text that can exceed 512 characters in length and that
can also contain carriage return/line feed (CR/LF) sequences. If you do
not use CR/LF sequences in your logon text, the maximum number of
characters that you can add is 512. If you use CR/LF sequences, you can
use a maximum of four lines of 512 characters each for a total of 2,048
characters. However, Windows 2000–based client computers cannot
interpret and display logon text that is created by computers running
Windows XP or Windows Server 2003. You must use a Windows 2000–based
computer to create a logon text policy that applies to
Windows 2000–based computers. If you inadvertently create a logon text
policy by using a computer running Windows XP Professional or Windows
Server 2003, and you discover that it does not display properly on
Windows 2000–based computers, do the following:
-
Undefine the setting.
-
Redefine the setting by using a Windows 2000–based computer.
You cannot simply change a Windows XP Professional or a Windows Server 2003–defined logon message policy by using a Windows 2000–based computer. The setting must be undefined first.
-
Undefine the setting.
