These are NT questions. Though I'd be curious to know if Win2k is any 
different.

Do services get started before a user logs on?

If a server machine reboots and starts back up again and no user is around to 
log onto it are any of the services that it normally provides not going to work 
until a user logs on?

The Services list appears to not be the only place that specifies processes to 
auto-start. Do the other places depend on the user logging on before services 
are started?

What are all the other places where one can specify what to start on boot-up?

Autoexec.bat seems like one place. Can it be made to be per user?
