Default Run behind login screen

Can BurnIn run behind the login screen? I'd like the script to be called on boot - without the need for a user to login. Windows - 2000, 2003. How about Linux - RHEL4 and SUSE 10 Server.

Thanks.

For windows you can create a short curt in the Windows startup directory to execute BurnInTest with the command line parameters to auto run (see http://www.passmark.com/ftp/bitproductionline_v4.pdf) but this will require a user login. Another option may be to create a scheduled task for above short cut using the "When my computer starts" / "At System Startup" option.

For Linux you may be able to use the command line version and execute it with init scripts (Gentoo example http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handboo...?part=2&chap=4) but this hasn't been tested. In redhat/fedora you should be able to add a link to BurnInTest to /etc/rc.local.

Thank you - that answered my question! I appreciate companies that take the time to quickly and efficiently answer end user requests. I like the software, and I'm hoping to use it in our QA dept.
