I have a peer to peer network of all WinXP Pro SP1 computers. Lately, I
have been unable to connect to one particular computer using any sort of
logon credentials. If I enter any logon ranging from Administrator to other
administrative accounts, all I get back is access denied...and I am
definately entering the passwords correctly. The username/password
combinations are the same on each machine so I should be able to
automatically and transparently authenticate with the other machine if I am
currently logged on. For instance, if my username is mrjoe on my computer
and there is an administrative account on the target computer with username
mrjoe and the exact same passwords on each, authentication should be
transparent. Unfortunately, it is not. If I go into the command prompt and
enter: net use \\computer\c$ and enter the appopriate logon information,
I get "System Error 5 has occured. Access Is Denied." This goes for any
logon I throw at it. The reverse procedure, where I try to connect from
that computer to my normal computer, works. So I'm kinda stumped. Also,
the logon works when using the Remote Desktop Connection. So, I'm guessing
there's some messed up setting somewhere. I've looked over the Group Policy
settings in the management console but I haven't been able to find a setting
out of whack.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
