Hi all, I have a customer with a peculiar problem. There is a notebook
running win XP Home (SP2) that will not remember the user name and
password to connect to a machine running Win 2000 Pro. There are other
users on the same network that connect no problem, even a couple of 98
machines. This will show the system as present, but will always prompt
for the Username and Password before they can use the printer or files
on the system. It's a small nuisance of course, just have to enter the
info each time the notebook comes online, but it would be nice to have
it log onto the Win 2000 system automatically on boot up.
Am I missing something basic here? I have never had an XP machine with
this symptom before.
Thanks
