I have an interesting problem to solve....

 

One of my SBS2003 customers is adding a point-of-sale application to thier network.  There will be 10 workstations running XP Pro, they will all have touch screen monitors.

 

I would like to get things set up so that when the PC is started, it will log into the network with an account set up for the POS operators, and execute the POS application.  When the user exits the POS app, I would like to turn the PC off.

 

I could carry around a wireless desktop for setup and configuration, but beyond that keyboards and mices will not be required for day-to-day use.  I can run the PCs using RDP if need be.  Does anyone have any handy-dandy tips for this type of set-up?  I've searched Microsoft's KB but nothing of use comes up...

 

Thanks for your time!

That may be a good thought down the road, but the current version of the app is not supplied to run on that OS.  I'm sure that I should be able to lock down an XP Pro workstation to provide a similar working environment for the operators.
