Hi all,

i was wondering if anybody knew how to change the windows server 2008 logon screen's wallpaper?

 

i tried several utility softwares like "Logon studio" etc... but none of them seems to do it (at least not on 2008 server).

i also tried some manual hacks like attempting to change the system32\imageres.dll using a resource editor... unfortunatly none of those methods is giving any results...

 

can anyone plz point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks!

hi samiup,

well, first of all, i have to say that the usual blue/green logon screen is the most

simple and beautiful that i've ever met...

 

second, you have the authui.dll which is in \system32 directory (by default).

you can download from the intenet (just write down "authui.dll" in google) and overwrite it over the old one...

 

the one of vista is kinda nature beauty - so look for vista authui.dll

 

and one thing to remember - less color on the server - beter performance you will get,

 

all the best,

yuval
