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 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
  • 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) :
Scheme: http
Port: 80
Host : ip/hostname of your Groovix server
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 )
  • Click Install
  • Run regedit and perform these actions:
Delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Libki
Change HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon value Userinit to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Libki\libkiclient.exe, C:\Windows\system32\userinit.exe
  • Restart the computer
