| Okay here's a doozie in a basic cry for help (wtf?) I have a Windows 2000 Server, and an XP Pro workstation, both part of the same workgroup. We need to access shares on each PC from each PC (Home LAN). I set up the share permissions as Everyone FC, they were originally Auth. users FC. NTFS Permissions go to the Authenticated users group Modify, and to the account I am logging in as FC. Note, I am also logged in under the same credentials on both machines. Same username & password. This works at work all the time. I get a login prompt, and when I supply the credentials it fails, and on XP locks my account out. WTF??? is causing this. I must be missing something real basic here because the Linux machine has no problems!!! Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

| Have you checked your group policy settings on the XP workstation?
You need to look for a specific setting:
under the computer configuration, windows settings, security settings, local policies, security options -
look for : "network access:sharing and security model"
if it is set for "guest only" then change it to "classic"
Make sure that you have a user account set up on XP that matches the account credentials from 2000.
Let me know if this is it!!! | |

| I'll try that. I looked at all of the security settings applied through group policy, but there is only one place to look. GPO's do not apply to MS-DOS clients trying to connect over the network. I think it is the lack of capability for these legacy clients to connect to Windows 2003. It all worked fine in Windows 2000.
