asked on Windows banner message which prompts for user input
Dear experts,
Unlike the traditional Windows banner message, we would like the users to enter the reason as why they are accessing, before logging-in to the machine. (Usually RDP in our environment). We want save the user input, their usernames and timestamp for auditing reasons. Is this possible? Please advise.
Thanks

sorry for the typo: it should be "is supported", not "is support", at the beginning of my comment above.
We used to load a HTA at logon by placing a launching command in
HKLM\Sofware\Microsoft\Win
but since Windows 7, the RunOnce key no longer executes for non-domain users. You could of course place the HTA in the Run key, but there are very easy ways around it once you get Desktop access.
I don't think it's possible with the security model of Windows these days. You are effectively requiring that custom code be run before a user access their desktop, and I don't think this is possible.

Thank you very much for your input guys.
Now I understand its not possible to capture text input before the login screen. However, is it possible to capture input after the login dialog and also restrict the desktop until they provide the input. Thank you very much again.
