From: Andrew on 30 Jul 2010 07:02 Hi guys, I need your help. I´ve tried about everything i know and searched for hours on the net. Even though i found a lot of tips an settings that seem to be the solution none of them worked as i wished they would. Here´s the problem 2 PCs with WinXP Prof. SP3 . Each is a clean installation without cloning. Each (safe boot) administrator accounts have different passwords each user works under their own account with activated password non of the accounts exist on the other pc ... except my account which exists on both pcs with the same password guest account is not active i am user 2 on either pc on pc1 is a usb printer which is shared user 1 on pc2 wants to use the printershare on pc1 he can not and get´s the user logon window saying pc1\user_1_of_pc2 but user 2 from pc2 does not have an account on pc1 Now, if i log on on pc1 and on pc2 i can print without getting the user log on screen if user 1 of pc1 does a net view \\pc2 he "sees" every share from pc2 if user1 from pc2 does a net view \\pc1 he gets "error 5" I fount out about this registry value "MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Lsa/RestrictAnonymous" both pcs had a value of 4 (in the user 1 account) on my account there was a value of "0". So , i changed it to "0" for user1 on either pc after rebooting both pcs the problem is still there. i hope you guys can help me somehow. I´ve also tried to disable the windowsfirewall ... de-activated and activated file and printerhare there are several other settings i activated after i learned about them but non of them solved the problem can anyone help ?

I would recommend that the users accounts and passwords be loaded on all PC sharing files/printer. This way if user1 needs to get on the other computer he will not have an authentication issue (as he would if he has no account and guest access has been disabled). So I suggest using the "manage" computer, add local accounts that are identical on both machines. |
