Hi Sambatistas,
a few days ago there was a discussion, how to force
jobs runas administrator at netlogon.
If you use a default.bat at netlogon this is executed
as the logon user , therefor you are running in rights problems
if you wanna execute job which need admin right like regedit /s .
I found myself in this problem too, pushing
the user to use the logon screensaver as default,
i created a reg key which work but now i had that regedit problem
( also apears if i push my thightvnc password )
i found this tool called cpau which
is a runas replacement which can take the user and password from 
commandline, also it allows to create full jobs i a crypted textfile
so nobody can see you admin passwords, it work great and is a simply 
solution for the  task.
Please look here for cpau
http://www.joeware.net/win32/
there are many usefull other tools more there.

if sombody is interested in the
reg key about the logonscreensaver
its like this

screenlogdefault.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]

"ScreenSaveActive"="1"
"ScreenSaverIsSecure"="1"
"ScreenSaveTimeOut"="600"
"SCRNSAVE.EXE"="C:\\WINNT\\system32\\logon.scr"

Best Regards
