How to erase the last user that logged on to BO ?

Hi!

When you log on to Business Objects 6.5, the name of the last user that logged on is presented to you.

When logging in to BO, the userID of "ADBONDT" shows at the PC of user "DLECOIN". User DLECOIN is therefore convinced that user ADBONDT sneaks into the office at night and uses his PC to connect to Business Objects. Which is nonsense, user ADBONDT has her own computer, own office, own login... Of course, at some point in the past, ADBONDT may have used the PC and the logon name is probably stored in a file or setting somewhere...

So my question is how I can erase the "last logon" in Business Objects? Where are the logon names stored? In the Windows registry? In a file? In the repository?

This issue is NOT blocking, but the user (a highly placed manager) demands that it gets solved.

All help appreciated...

Daniel

Found it! The last login is stored in the "BOMAINV6.LSI" file on the PC, which is usually in the directory C:\Documents and Settings\WINLOGON\Application Data\Business Objects\Business Objects 6.0\lsi

If you delete the lsi file, then a new file gets created automatically, and the problem disappears....
