Good Morning,

I have a small network with 4 computers all running win 2000 pro. The
system works well 99% of the time, however, occasionally, when trying to
access one of the computers I am asked for an administrators password and
without it i cannot access other computers. Rebooting the system most of
the time allows me to get into the other computers without a password.
There is no password set for any of the computers.
Why does this happen? Is there a way to avoid this from coming up?

Thank you for your input and suggestions.
 
Make sure all computers are in the same workgroup and that all useraccounts
exist on all computers (W2K/XP's). Got File- and printersharing loaded? Is
Netbios over TCP/IP enabled (Advanced properties of TCP/IP, tab WINS)?
