You can use the Libki client to enable Groovix server based reservations and authentication under Windows.
Security, privacy, and configuration are not handled by the Windows Libki or Groovix client.
- Create an admin user called gxadmin ( microsoft instructions )
- Create an unprivileged user called guser
- the password should not be used for any other accounts, you will need to enter it again in the next step
- the security question answers can be random and should be impossible to guess
- Enable automatic login on bootup for user guser by
- running netplwiz
- unchecking the "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" box
- entering guser as the user and enter the password twice
- Download the Libki client from http://open-sense.com/downloads/windows/Libki_Client_Installer.exe
- Run the installer and click Next
- If you get a "Windows protected your PC" message, click on "More info" and then "Run Anyway"
- Enter These Values ( leave others blank , click "Next" as necessary) :

- Location: ( GX_SITE)
- Run for all users but this one: gxadmin
- Client Name: ( GX_LABEL )
- Logout Action: Reboot
- Client Disable Password: ( different password from gxadmin and gxstaff , To bypass Libki Client on user sign in, leave username blank and enter this password and click Log In )
