strawberry Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 hi, hope my subject was clear,i made myself a nice clean installation following many guides in here , after searching and searching again i managed to do what i wanted , so i installed my xp on few computers...so it's winxp pro sp2 (did the same with sp1)and when i want to browse netwtwork and computers on network , a dialog box pops up and asks for a pass to log on to the computer...i cancel and can't of course access network , if i don't put anything of course it asks for more i didn't change anything related to user rights or anything in winnt.sif or registry tweaks...or command anyone had this problem in the past?i could post my file for a check if needed...thanks for your time anyway..

BritishBulldog Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 How are you loggin on to the network in the first place. Is it enabled in your winnt.sif and a autologin.reg?post copies of these two files without passwords and keys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 It's normal for a dialog box to pop up when you're browsing an XP computer that has nothing shared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritishBulldog Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 but not if you are browsing the network though.Is the computer being added to the network properly ie into the domain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
