[dba-Tech] Network Password

Closer, I think.  From Main Box the LT shows on the Network.  LT has a user
name and password login so I enter \\DELLLAPTOP\Rocky and the password, but
get an error \\DELLLAPTOP is not accessible.  You might not have permission
to use this network resource.  And the: The specified username is invalid.

Any ideas?

P.S. Get pretty much the same result trying to login to main box from LT.

It'll be the name of the main box followed by the username you created when
you set it up, so \\mainbox\username, and then I guess, no password.

You can find out the name of the computer by looking in Computer Properties,
and the username by checking the local users bit on Control Panels.

If it doesn't like not having a password, you can always create one, and
then set an autologin on the box to put the password in for you without any
prompting.

Dear Lists:

Time to figure this out.  I am trying to get my laptop - which I only use
for travel - to talk to my primary box so I can upload stuff I need to take
with me.  I've been working around this for a long time by copying to my
external HD and plugging that into the LT.  But that's soooo unprofessional.

When I try to connect to the main box from the LT or from the LT to the main
box I get a dialog box asking me to Enter Network User Name and Password but
I have no idea what this could be.  Main box does not have a login, just
fires right up - LT has a login - user name and password, but that does not
work as credentials on either box.

Any ideas how to find the Network User Name and Password?
